'Emotional' Linda Nolan 'astonished' by results of new health treatment

An "emotional" Linda Nolan has revealed she is trying out a brand new health treatment - and has been "astonished" by the results. The singer, who rose to fame as a member of girl group The Nolans with her sisters, gave fans an update on her treatment for lymphedema.

The 63-year-old developed the condition after having a mastectomy following her breast cancer diagnosis in 2006. She has previously shared that she has been "plagued" by it ever since but has "learned how to live with it", reports the Mirror.

Lymphedema causes swelling in the body's tissues due to a build-up of lymph fluid, which can have various causes including faulty genes or damage to the lymphatic system, according to the NHS. It can affect any part of the body but usually develops in the arms or legs and can be a side effect of cancer treatment.
