Mum told she had allergy and anxiety as doctors failed to spot serious condition for four years

A mum has told how she thought she was losing her mind after doctors failed to spot she had a life-changing condition. Rachel Wilson was told she had a "classic case" of anxiety by medics who had already said seizures she had begun to have were sinus related and down to an allergy.

It took four and a half years - and a Facebook plea - before the mother-of-one was finally given the diagnosis which left her reeling. And it also left her feeling a whole range of emotions from anger to sadness, she told the Mirror.

Sarah told how she had first discovered something was wrong as she drove son, Sonny, to Manchester. She said out of the blue she just felt strange.
