Hi val64,
Did you have surgery? If so, did they run the testing on your tumor tissue? This will also show mutations that could have been inherited. That was the case for me.

I did have the tumor sequenced, and the germline "variants of uncertain significance" that were reported were all derived from the wrong parent. (I not only had my whole genome sequenced, but also that of my one living parent. So I could tell who germline variants came from.). Good idea, but it didn't work for me.
