I for one am curious as to did they go straight to the brain or route through the lungs or bone or liver? This is pretty scary stuff. Is there a longer more indepth report of this study?
I have my noggin scanned every 6 months, but I know a lot who aren't. Will ASCO now change there recommendations of post care for HER2 BC patients to include brain MRI's? Is that the only way the onc's will do them? Or do we still have to get headaches? How long afterwards should we be getting MRI's done? Does anybody have estimates? It said it lets the cancer grow and can get into the brain but I didn't see how long it took?
Any estimates are welcome or personal experiences. thank you. k
