“The most challenging part of dealing with Lynch syndrome for me is the uncertainty surrounding my son’s health. The fear of him possibly inheriting the mutation gives me anxiety, especially since he hasn’t been tested yet. If it were solely about me, I might have approached things differently — I may have postponed my prophylactic surgeries until after achieving menopause.”
“I didn’t have to face Lynch syndrome alone after realizing that support is always available. That support system, as well as staying ahead on check-ups and focusing on my wellbeing, guided my path after being diagnosed.”
The landscape of Lynch syndrome has significantly evolved over the past decade, with advancements in genetic testing, universal screening and predictive models improving early detection.
