What is the chances that I will get cancer? My great-grandfather had brain cancer, my great-grandmother has ovarian cancer and now my grandmother has kidney cancer. What are my chances of getting cancer later on in life? My mother has had a cyst on her ovaries and I have had an inflammation in my fallopian tubes years ago but nothing related to cancer.
I know your scared and I was, and still am after having cancer. So your question what are your chances, I feel yes its in the genetic gene's but I also believe strongly that were all different and we can help prevent this as much as possible to help live a normal every day life, if we worry its one negative vibe against us. The key is to stay positive and not allow this disease effect you on a daily basis. I live day to day for this is how I choose to handle it. Keep white refined sugar out of your diet as much as possible, dyes, cook with stainless steel pans, drink plenty of water, don't eat after 7P.M. get plenty of fresh bright vegetables and fruits in your diet. I also have my green tea daily. These are just a few things and always consult your doctor when deciding to make such changes to your diet.
Best of Luck

pretty good sorry to say, but at least you can look at it this way, you have the heads up and can seek regular check-ups to catch it early where most people don't find out till it is beyond the point of remmision. get regular checks and fight it...

Genetics do play a major role in the chance of developing cancer.
As a woman in the United States, your odds of getting breast cancer are about one in eight, so odds are high. The important thing is getting annual checkups, eating healthy and exercising. In other words doing your part to decrease the risk factors.

You shouldn't be worried about it, really!
Approximately 1 out of 3 people get cancer during their lifetime. But that doesn't mean, that 1 out of 3 people actually dies because of cancer. Actually, there are more detrimental diseases, but everyone fears cancer.
If you start calculating your chances of getting diseases, you are wasting your precious time.
Most of us has a family history of cancer, so the fact, that your great-grandparents had cancer is not frightening.
You should not fear what trouble may lie ahead!

alot of its genetics. when i was an embroy a cell seeped out of my ovary and when i was 17 it started to mutate and it became ovarian cancer. theres no way to detect it until it decides to start mutating.

Please check out Lynch Syndrome or also known as Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer. A consultation with a professional genetic counsellor would be the first step.
