    My son and daughter were recently told they also have Lynch Syndrome. They are both in their 40’s with good jobs and insurance. My question is will having Lynch affect their insurance?

    Thank you for your video. I’m living in Germany and for 1 week I’ve been diagnosed with lynch syndrome and many doctors don’t know what it is. I hope I will never get cancer 🙏🏽

    I'm wondering what kind of risk one has when they have homozygous mutations of all 5 of these genes, as I recently found out this is what I have. I can look at risk individualls with that ask2me website, but I'm not sure how they all combine. I am a male, and sadly also have brca1 and brca 2 homozygous as well.

    I have Lynch Syndrome. It was diagnosed after I had had a high red count (I still do), and had a small cancer cell on my right kidney. All i know about it is that they called it "renal cancer". My granny & 1 of her sisters both died after renal cancer fights. My father had kidney & bladder cancer. They didnt diagnose him till his kidney cancer was in stage 4. So i took the genetic test. I do carry Lynch Syndrome according to my drs. I'm not finding ANYTHING on my condition. I have had complete hysterectomy, I have upper & lower gi's every year. BUT, information about my condition is really hard to find. Can you help?
