Mum 'won't see kids grow up' after 'sinus infection' was huge tumour

A mum plagued by headaches was told by her GP she had a sinus infection, when in reality it was a terminal brain tumour.

Jennifer Roscoe, from St Helens, started suffering with bouts of vomiting and migraines before deciding to visit her GP in early 2019. The mum-of-two was told she was likely suffering from a sinus infection and visited an ear, nose and throat specialist after the symptoms became so bad that she could no longer work.

She said: "I was put on beta blockers to stop the migraines, but they didn’t do anything. I was getting worse and became so bad and lost so much weight that I had to stop working as a pharmacy technician.”
