So far the doctors are saying no surgery, surgery for this aged person can be so fraught with problems overall. About the mutation test, no I don't think she will venture there at this late date and with all her issues.

And if so many have this mutation issue, more shame on pharma world of continuing drugging the population for all the conditions they go to see their doctors. I know I've been a loud voice on my feelings about the modern medical industry here and every where I venture and this topic is discussed. C
