Yes ill be talking to my GP. How much does it cost to have the blood tests for Brest cancer. It's killed my paternal grandmother and all her 5 sisters. Most of my aunties and cousins on my paternal side have also got or passed of breast cancer. I want to know if I have the genetic markers. Some of my cousins are in their early 30's. This scares me, being both my maternal and paternal passed cancer history is very alarming.

As far as I'm aware, usually when there is family history there is no fee for these kinds of tests.
If you do have this, there will be important environmental factors for you to consider. This is the same for all gene mutations. This is all to the best of my knowledge anyway.
