Linda Nolan has spoken out about how a specific symptom prompted her to get checked over by doctors, which then resulted in the devastating news that her secondary breast cancer has spread to her brain
Linda Nolan has opened up about the particular symptom that led her to realise her cancer had advanced. The performer shared that her secondary breast cancer has now affected her brain, highlighting a decline in her balance and memory as key indicators that prompted medical assessment.
She admitted her fears prior to diagnosis saying, "I had feared something was wrong. My balance has been getting worse and my memory - my sisters have to prompt me when I get lost in the middle of a sentence. Maureen came with me to the appointment and my Macmillan Cancer support nurse was in the room, and I could just tell. I asked my consultant straight away: 'Has it spread? ' When he told me, I immediately asked: 'What do we do now? '".
Despite this, there remains another chemotherapy option available which might help to keep her cancer at bay. Even though Linda faces HER2-positive secondary breast cancer, women with another variant known as HER2-low continue their campaign for access to Enhertu via the NHSa drug available in Scotland and noted for its potential to extend life expectancy.
