No knowing the type of BC you had, it's difficult to say. But common recurrence sites include liver, bones, brain and lungs. Did you old doc do scans of these places during your treatment? If not, without symptoms or rising tumor markers in your blood, you probably won't be given scans except every 6 months or annually. The reason? A scan today could be clean while the same scan in 2 weeks could show multilple lesions. The damned cancer can be very aggressive. I AM glad you're having a brain CT scan, although I personally prefer brain MRI since it shows more detail. Several women on this site, me included, asked for and got brain scans with no symptoms only to find multiple mets. Sneaky.
Good luck with your scan and keep us posted.
Love and light,
Lisa
