Genetic tests available for breast cancer detection

Last year I was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time. The first time was 2007. I had genetic testing done in September. The test I had was from Ambry genetics which tested for 17 genetic mutations. I have CHEK2 mutation and because that showed up for me, my daughter was tested and she also has it.

I had breast cancer in 2007 as well. I thought after the 10 year mark everything was clear. I am looking at genetic testing currently with a genetic counselor. Is there a difference between sending out blood or a cheek swab?
