My tiredness led to life-changing diagnosis after warning from ITV's Lorraine

Jo Kerfoot noticed she had discharge from her nipple but thought it was just because of breastfeeding. Despite being a spin instructor, she was also becoming tired all the time, and was barely able to keep up with her own classes. Plus she hadn't breast-fed for years and also had an unusual patch of skin on her left breast.

So when she saw an episode of ITV's Lorraine which involved talking about the symptoms of breast cancer she decided to get the concerns checked . Unfortunately for Jo, it was cancer and despite having a mastectomy the spin class instructor saw it return just a year later.

"When you're diagnosed with cancer, it takes over and it's all you think about and it's all people think when they see you," the 47-year-old told the Mirror.
