preventative screening brca1 status post bso and prophylatic mastectomy

What are the guidelines for cancer screening for a patient who is brca1 positive and has had a bso/hysterectomy and bilateral prophylatic mastectomies with reconstructive silicone implants? Annual CA-125? MRI? Pelvic ultrasounds?

I think the screening procedures would be at the descretion of your Physician ..... most Dr.s have different routines regarding screening procedures. You might consult a Breast Specialist if you aren't comfortable with what is being recommended now.     Regards .....
