Hello, yes I was sent to genetics. My EGFr 19 t790 was passed down to me. Not from somatic like most people. My parents are going to get tested, we have no clue where it came from.

Hi Heather - my name is Rebecca and I also have the genetic T790M mutation. In my family, my father and his dad both had lung cancer. I'm in my 50s, but I have 2 middle schoolers and I understand your feelings about your daughter. My kids did the Pickles program and I think it was helpful, especially for my younger child.
