A mum-of-three who was diagnosed with a rare from of leukaemia was originally told she was lacking in vitamins and had severe tonsillitis. Kerry Harry began to experience "terrible fatigue" in April 2021, which she put down to working long hours and family life.
After her fatigue started to get worse, she decided to visit her GP who told her that she was lacking in vitamins. But after her legs became covered in bruises, she went back to her GP, who ordered blood tests.
She was told that her white blood cell count was low and a referral appointment was made for the middle of October. Kerry told the Liverpool ECHO that she thought "it wasn't serious because it wasn't being rushed".
