Similar to Kate, I was dx'd with brain mets with a brain MRi just two mos. after dx of mediastinal nodal mets, w/ uncomfirmed 'spot' on lung and pelvis.

The largest brain met was 1.5cm at scan, so I have always felt it was there for some while. The small amount of visual effects in one eye had been there for about 7 months... just very infrequent. It was this 'symptom' that when I finally reported it to my onc, he ordered the MRi.

In five yrs since Navelbine/Herceptin put my body NED, I've only had brain mets.

close but maybe 'no cigar' to your question.
