Breast cancer if does not have metastasis in so much time there are very little chance now. Also breast tumour spread more through lymph nodes so chances of going to brain without involvement of shoulder and axillary lymph nodes are very less. So be assure. Get your lp test any way. As it is always better to know disease at earliest. If still you are anxious, take a early appointment. Take care.
