It's important to emphasize that while you have the right to keep your health information private, sharing your genetic mutation result with family members can be crucial for their health, as they may also be at risk. Consider discussing the implications of the mutation and the potential benefits of family members being aware, such as early screening and preventive measures. We can also explore ways to facilitate this conversation if you decide to share the information with them. Ultimately, your decision will be respected, but support is available to help you navigate this situation.
