    Ileana, do some research on Lynch syndrome. I am being tested genetically, too, and was told that if I had a genetic component to my disease that I would actually be deemed low-risk for recurrence. In other words, have the genetic predisposition makes you more likely to have to tangle with the beast, but that you have the upper hand in a sense.
