Yes, I got tested for many several genes: ATM, BARD1, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDH1, CHEK2, FANCC, MRE11A, NBN, NF1, PALB2, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51C, STK11, TP53. It was positive for a variant of uncertain significance on ATM, but my doctor told me not to worry about it.

Still waiting for those results! The lab run out blood running the test and I had to go give them some more

not yet!

I was tested for BRCA1 and 2, come back negative but I have agreed for my blood sample to be studied for any other faulty genes etc...

I wasn't tested for genes as I am the first in my family, tat we know of, to have breast cancer.
