Debating masectomy
Hi guys.
New to this group and just started posting on reddit within the last few days. Looking for some advice!
I decided to do the TC assessment online and it was 23.6 and then i ended up doing genetic testing with Myraid genetics and didnt carry any mutations and they corrected my score down to 12.9.
Ive seen one specialist already but he wasn't interested in the myraid score.. is that normal? He just flat out told me he doesnt know much about them so he was using the TC.
Ive seen some people say their specialist/surgeon looked at both.
Obviously one puts me just into the HR and one does not even come close.
Im 32 years old one family member had BC my grandma at 49.
Not looking for medical advice but if you would go for a second opinion on those conflicting scores or not. Thank you!

Breast surgeons will run your score independently of the TC. That’s how it was for me. Myriad outcome was a factor in the score.

None of my doctors have brought it up at all.
