Mum who was 'too young' for 'terrible' diagnosis given year to live

A mum, who was told by doctors a problem with her contraception was the cause of her pain, has been given a year to live.

Emma Clarke, 31, was told by doctors and her GP the abnormal bleeding she was experiencing was a result of her contraception becoming "misaligned" and had "lacerating" her womb. She was told at the time she was "too young for it to be anything else."

However, as the bleeding and pain intensified, despite doctors repeatedly telling her it was due to her IUD contraception, she eventually spoke to a specialist. She was told "I've never seen a womb look that way which wasn't a case of cervical cancer."
