Hi Alaska,
I think if you continue to have head pain, you should try to get it checked out by MRI, although it does sound like a bit of hassel...Otherwise, it sounds to me like you're doing all the right things; 6 month checkups by a trusted MD who listens to you, the TM's, etc.
I have the CEA tm, that's the only one that has ever shown an increase when I have active cancer, but it's not generally considered a very good marker for bc. IF you have symptoms that need to be checked out, CT scans usually pick up areas of concern which can then be investigated further by biopsy if possible, or PET or MRI.
The main thing is to bring any concern to your MD's attention, and talk it through to decide the best course of action for your level of concern and circumstances. Nothing you don't already know, I guess, but sometimes it helps to have it affirmed. Take care.
Love, Lolly
