A young woman who thought she needed glasses was shocked when an optician suspected a brain tumour and doctors sent her for emergency surgery - saying if it had been a day later she would have died.
Ellie Musgrove, 21, started experiencing severe headaches and neck pain after her 21st birthday in January 2022, but she knew it was more than just a hangover after only celebrating with two alcoholic drinks.
Ellie then realised she couldn't see properly when she was plucking her eyebrows - her vision was impaired with black spots and double vision.
