However, if you are worried all the time that you are going to get it, and the worry interferes with your life, than it might be worth the surgery.
My friend is terrified of getting breast cancer. Her mother almost died, and her aunt did die of it. They have other family history also. My friend is done with having children. So far, she hasn't decided to go this route, but I would understand if she did.
If you want to know more personal testimony...FREEPmail me.I feel dorry for your friend,but she's only making things much worse for herself,being that scared all of the time.
