A Whitehills badminton player with an extremely rare medical condition admits her gold-medal treble at the Scottish National Badminton Championship has left her “over the moon” – and helped her cope with a recent diagnosis.
Thirty-three-year-old Diane Gillan has revealed she has been diagnosed with hand-foot-genital syndrome (HFGS), a condition that affects the hands and feet and the reproductive system.
Only a few cases have been reported worldwide and Diane has been told she is the only current case in the UK.
