Shannen Doherty informed to her fans that her incurable breast cancer has spread to her brain despite therapy. The 52-year-old Charmed star revealed about her cancer diagnosis on Instagram.
Shannen Doherty said her brain cancer had progressed despite therapy. She posted a radiation treatment video and claimed that her scan showed brain metastases. “January 12, 2023,” she explained. My brain CT showed Mets on January 5. Yesterday’s video showed the mask fitting for brain radiation.
“January 12 was the first round of radiation,” the 52-year-old said of her emotions. I’m afraid. My life was hectic and I’m claustrophobic. I’m lucky to have Dr. Amin Mirahdi and Cedar Sinai’s outstanding technicians. But that fear—the turmoil—the timing—this is cancer.” 2015 was Doherty’s breast cancer diagnosis.

The actress was cured by mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation. In 2020, she stated she had terminal breast cancer after going into remission in 2017. “I’d like to share more of my own personal journey from my first diagnosis to my second,” she said in a lengthy breast cancer awareness month essay. All pretty? NO, but it’s true and my aim is that we all learn more about cancer.”
I hope I inspire people to get mammograms, frequent exams, and to tackle their fears. I had breast cancer in 2015. Mastectomy, chemo, and radiation. Chemo caused frequent nosebleeds. Not sure if anyone has this. “I was beyond tired,” she wrote about her cancer struggle. “My buddy Kristy sent me hilarious pajamas to brighten me up. Were they uplifting? Yes!! “Lol,” it concludes.
“I looked stupid and laughed at myself. Humor got me through the impossible. “I hope we laugh at the impossible,” it ends. She posted a photo with a hairless version of herself and tissues in her bleeding nose. She’s weary in another photo. Instagram images and videos by Doherty have chronicled her cancer battle.
