HER2 Support Group Forums - View Single Post - Brain MRIs for early stage....consensus??

I was able to have my onco agree to give me a prescription to get a brain MRI when I see him in a month based on the SABCS paper on Her 2 women having 2X the chance of brain mets (even early stage). He said he would recommend a brain MRI yearly to all his HER 2 women that are not metastatic.

It was that easy for me.

Best regards

Becky

PS - I am going to get it done.
