The “Beverly Hills, 90210” star, Shannen Doherty revealed in a video a CT scan and how  her cancer had spread.

Doctors found metastases on her brain on Jan. 5 and the actress began radiation on Jan. 12.

“My fear is obvious. I am extremely claustrophobic and there was a lot going on in my life,” Doherty captioned the post. “I am fortunate as I have great doctors like Dr Amin Mirahdi and the amazing techs at cedar sinai. But that fear…. The turmoil….. the timing of it all…. This is what cancer can look like.”In March, Doherty seemed to be doing well.

She was part of a panel at 90s Con for the show “Charmed” and when the moderator asked how she was feeling, the actress replied, “I’m feeling great, thank you! … This crowd is amazing,” according to People.

Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. The actress underwent eight rounds of chemotherapy and radiation treatments along with a single mastectomy before entering remission in 2017.In 2018, Doherty revealed her tumor markers were “elevated.”

She wrote on Instagram: “Test and results. One Tumor marker test came back good. Other… elevated. Just means I get monitored and another test.”

“But even after that call, I’m staying positive and taking stock of my life. It certainly helps put things in perspective and reminds you of what you learned thru the cancer journey. And I sometimes, need a refresher. (sic)”By 2020, the “Charmed” actress’ cancer was back and in stage four, spreading beyond its original location.
