@medtech4, The additional news of the brain metastasis understandably ramps up your concern. My type of cancer has a high rate of brain mets, but I’ve avoided that …so far. I know plenty of others that have faced this. With newer types of radiation, brain mets can been treated successfully, with very minimal after effects. And the biomarker results may still alter the treatment plan for you.
Are you being treated at a cancer center that you feel comfortable with? Do they have access to targeted brain radiation treatments?
Here’s a link to more info on the types of brain radiation, just in case you need it:

You get to decide who gets to be in your inner circle of information. It’s all still new, you’re still processing the news yourself, and you’ll know when you’re ready for a wider circle of sharing.
Try to find something that can take your mind off of all of this, even for a short while. Wishing you a bit of peace during this difficult time.
