I have Stage 2 breast cancer and found out today that I have the Chek 2 gene mutation. Scheduled for lumpectomy in 3 weeks, and wondering if treatment plan should change from this. Anyone else have this situation? If you had this gene, did you change to mastectomy?

Are you ILC or IDC? Is it in situ? Are you HER2 + or minus and have they told you the approximate size of the site?

Send a message to your Breast Surgeon with this question. They should be able to answer this.

Hi @journey99, I was wondering if you made a change to your surgical choice with finding out that you had the Chek2 mutation?
