I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Most of these mistakes are harmless, but a small fraction of them occur in a gene that will kick-start a cell's uncontrollable replication, leading to cancer. In other words, most of the mutations that occur when our cells divide cause no damage. Occasionally, a mutation occurs in a cancer gene, leading to the disease. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
