Katie Schofield credits her weight loss with finding the cancer in the first place - even if she suffered 'lots of complications'
A mum said her "nightmare" gastric sleeve operation in Turkey saved her life - after she lost so much weight it revealed a "pea-sized" lump in her breast.
“I suffered loads of complications - like a blood clot in my main portal vein, two blood clots in my right arm and a throat-and-lung infection. But a month later, I finally started to feel like myself again, and I could enjoy my new body. Katie said: “Mum originally got the all-clear - but by the time she started getting her stomach symptoms, it was too late."
She visited the Aintree Hospital for biopsies and on November 30 2023, she was diagnosed with stage one breast cancer - the same type as her mum’s. Within two weeks, David began complaining of a sore, inverted nipple.
