A mum was diagnosed with stage four cancer after waking up looking "pregnant".
Linsey Farrington, from Widnes, began suffering with chest pains back in April last year and described the pain as "horrendous". The 37-year-old said doctors diagnosed her with pleurisy, which is inflammation of the sheet-like layer that cover the lungs.
The mum-of-two was treated for this with medication and had various tests and scans on her lungs which came back clear. Linsey said the pain was not going away, despite being on strong medication and would go "through a bottle of Gaviscon a day".
