I agree with Stephanie. Many docs wait for symptoms before ordering an MRI but most will modify that based on the wish of their patient. I know that changing Onc's might be scary, but not as scary as worrying. Remember...the doc works for you and has a responsibility to you, not the other way around. My wife's doc has agreed to a brain MRI every 6 months in the absence of symptoms. Please don't wait to pressure your doc or find a new one. Catching brain mets earlier can potentially give you more treatment options.
Best of luck with whatever you decide,
Eric
