Are you saying you’ve had breast cancer 5 times with a different makeup each time or you have had 5 different types of cancer? If 5 different types can I ask what they are? I’m curious if they are all related to one tumor suppression mutation. I have two known cancer mutations (BRCA2 CHEK2) but my family has had so many different types of cancer that I’m guessing there are more genetic mutations in the family.

. It's that particular cancer cell's makeup that makes it more aggressive. So by disrupting it's dna it just gives me more a fighting chance. Cancer is just something else. I am so sorry to hear you have had it five times and for sure it does arise from a series of genetic changes that disrupt normal cell function and can be inherited. For me though I think I acquired mine through environmental factors or some other error during cell division. As my oncologist says it is not anyone's fault . Sometimes it just in the blue print or some other factor that can trigger them to rapidy start dividing.. I will tell anyone right now as a first in my family that stress did it for me.. that is the environmental exposure for me for show.
