I've been considering a breast augmentation. My only concern is there is quite a bid of breast cancer in my family background. My mother had a single mastectomy. Her sister had a lumpectomy. And there are supposedly other's in their older generation that may have had breast cancer also. I tested negative on the BRCA cancer gene test. My OBGYN says I should be fine getting an augmentation. My GP suggests that I shouldn't based on family history. Would I be an idiot for taking the risk?
