Hi, My Father Tested Positive For The BRCA 1 Gene,

Hi, My father tested positive for the BRCA 1 gene, two of his sisters who also tested positive developed breast cancer in their late thirties. I am terrified that I also carry the gene. Would you recommend that I get tested? I am currently 26 years old.
