Scots woman's blood cancer missed after GP put symptoms down to 'being a busy mum'
A blood cancer patient who had holes in her spine was initially misdiagnosed due to 'being a busy mum'.
Donna said: "I had this chronic fatigue that I couldn't shake. It wouldn't lift and I had really bad back pain that had constantly been put down to having babies. "I sat in the car in the car park crying for ages because I knew something was not right. I didn't feel like myself and it was getting worse. It was awful."
Donna said: "I was stuck in this situation of having a really young family and having lost my mum. I just felt really desperate. It was really difficult to see beyond that place of darkness to begin with because I was so frightened. She said: "I remember that first night after seeing Dr Soutar, saying to my husband, 'I'm absolutely going to be here in 10 years'."
"Life is never going to be the same again, there's no doubt about that. The way I see it is there's a volcano inside me.
