'I thought I had a massive pimple but it turned out to be a deadly tumour'

Siobhan Harrison, 23, first spotted the lump while getting dressed in December 2020 and dealt with it the only way she knew how - by giving it a squeeze and trying to pop it.

But that didn't work and a bruise formed, so she decided to get it checked out and paid £200 for a private ultrasound, but the results were inconclusive and she was encouraged to have a biopsy.
