I would like to know to prepare myself. As I am planning to go back to live in my country of Origin, by the time I turn 65. Genetically I already have cacer stage two, just before I turn 40 years old. twenty some years later,even with a very lumpy breast I am okay. But in my father side, it's not good.

My nephew, he was only 29 yrs old. 5 years prior to him, was an other one only 26.
Then my half sister from my dad side had it as well, but she survived 10 years ago.

We're only 14 of us left. My generation.
Meaning the 50's 60's +
I had plenty to worry about. Won't you think so. I am losing my sleep I am so worry about this matter.
Do you have Medicare? If yes, Medicare usually pays for such gene testing.
Have you appointed your Durable Power of Attorney, Healthcare POA, etc.? I would consult with an Elder Law attorney, who can review your situation and advise on what needs to be done.
Do you have a trusted person or an attorney who can assist with your financial matters?
You say you are moving to another country down the road. You might explore what you need to have in place to cover that event as well, such as legal documents, in case you move there. Do you have trust people there, who can help you if you need help in your country of origin?
Have you discussed your concerns with you doctor? I would certainly explore what could be causing your symptoms. They may want to check for infections, medication interactions, vitamin deficiency, etc. There are many things that could be causing the problem and some things can be treated.
If you are uncomfortable about losing your investment money, I'd discuss that with an attorney too, to see your options and if you can recover any back. I would do that without delay.
Se had no money. & Ia m the only one giving a hand for the pass 20 years.

A tranquilizer is a prescription pill that helps calm someone down. I never wanted to take them but eventually I was stressed to the max I was literally shaking. The meds takes the edge off. Other things can also take the edge off such as walking or doing exercise, but only if you have the time and energy. Stress had taken away much of my energy.
How well do you sleep at night? If you worry a lot or if you have sleep apnea, you may not be getting enough deep sleep. I had a sleep study that showed that my breathing was too shallow when I slept and I was not getting enough oxygen. I wasn't necessarily sleepy, but, I had other symptoms, like lack of focus, poor concentration, memory problems, health issues. Once, I got on Cpap treatment, it was like night and day. It took a few months, but I saw great improvement. I feel like a different person.
I'd let the doctor figure out what is causing your problems. They may be very treatable.
I have to do some research... Yup that's me. Lack of focus, very poor concentration,big time memory problems etc...
Excuse my ignorance...What is a Cpap treatment?
Best,
Y.
Cpap is a machine you wear when sleeping so you can breath easier. It's on the order of wearing a snorkel.
I would discuss a sleep study with your doctor. They have to order it for insurance to cover it. There are many insurance rules on C-pap, but most of the companies know how to abide by them. It just takes time.
I can say that I was very concerned with my focus and memory too. Now, I'm as sharp as ever. So, it really turned me around.
And if that is not the problem, it could be something else that is treatable too. I would not lose hope. Just try to figure it out.
