Get the MRI!

I finished my second round of Taxotere and Herceptin in January and have been on just Herceptin since then. Four weeks ago one cancer marker went up, had a not-good CT scan April 17th and yesterday asked my oncologist for an MRI to rule out brain mets. Got the MRI today and the news is not good. Two "inoperable" tumors; one near the basal ganglion (largest) and one near brain stem. I had been dizzy during treatment and since and had noted a dull headache upon arising. Get this, my oncologist didn't want to order the MRI because "you have no symptoms". Consult with radiology oncologist next...

Get the MRI no matter what!
