Prostate Cancer / connection with breast cancer?
According to an article published on Fox News, researchers in Australia have discovered a link between prostate cancer and breast cancer (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0, 2933,356568,00. html). It seems that the same gene is found in both. My question is, if my father died of prostate cancer, does that put me in a higher risk of breast cancer? If so, I start having mammograms before 40?
I have not heard of ProSat and breast cancer is linked before but have not been updated in the news, my paternal grandmother had cancer breast and my father had cancer of lymphoma that was diagnosed breast cancer in W 07 November, I was tested for the BRCA gene and positive, my sister was also tested and it is positive that is not cancer, but she is at risk and she carries the gene. the oncologist who did our trials, said the INS covers and B / C my sister had a relative who has cancer of its instrument can not "tag" your w / have something wrong b / c it is considered discrimination, hope that helps. I hope "IM user here," reads this and OBGYN here to press for a mammogram
