I asked my Onc about Sloan-Kettering's protocal on brain MRIs for early-stage patients. She said that it had been the subject of a very active discussion at their last meeting. For now, they are not advising early stage Her2+ patients to get brain MRIs, although I had the distinct sense that this decision was not clear cut nor unanimous. Her hypothetical question is 'what if we find a 3mm lesion, but no symptoms, would we do anything about it-- we probably wouldn't.' I am in no hurry to get a brain MRI, but I reserved the right to ask her about it in the future. I had the feeling that she would have sent me for one if I pushed.
Hope this is helpful.
