I haven't had brain mets so don't know how long they take to shrink. When is your next MRI scheduled? That would probably be a factor in my decision on treatment because I wouldn't want to wait if it was going to be a while but if it was within the next couple of weeks, I'd probably go ahead and wait to see what the MRI showed. Have you asked your oncologist about it?
