Hi Elise and welcome,

There's an insightful section on the main Breastcancer.org site on Prophylactic Mastectomy that might be helpful to you. In addition, there's a page on Questions to Ask Your Surgeon.

There's also an entire section devoted to Lowering Your Risk. You may find some other options here, if you decide against a pbmx.

Hope this helps, and best of luck!
