Hello Ido,

I would like to see more germline testing. I was put forward based on my family history, age and aggressive caner when diagnosed for testing. I will raise again in my next meeting but I assume that there are COVID delays.

In the meanwhile I am awaiting a 23andme DNA test result (that cannot be used for medical purposes obviously) as this include BRCA1/2 (albeit just a few ins/del variants).
