I think my Onc wants to test the brain somewhere in the range of every 3-6 months. I am ok with that. He did mention that catching the brain tumors before symptoms, may only be 1 month difference. If you pay attention to the signs, you can go in right away when you know you have them. Really though, brain mets are hard to treat no matter what stage you get them at and symptoms usually present early on. Either the treatments will work for the brain mets, or they won't. That's my opinion on the matter.
