Bpknitter— my dx was similar (ATM, not BRCA) and my thoughts were much like yours. One check up at a time. Hoping we both stay clear.

I know Modern Medicine has made wonderful strides for women, but I am very glad that at the time of my surgery, there was no information regarding type of cancer. I just assumed it had been removed and that was the end of it. I was 36 and I am now 93. The naming and giving information to women that can only worry them more, seems very painful and almost unnecessary for them to know. Know you are on the road to recovery, love every day, and assume you have been through HELL and ar e on the road out to a bright and wonderful new life Easy for me to say, and very hard for you to believe. I know, I have been there.
