Woman told she was 'too young' for diagnosis now has just a year to live

A woman was given a devastating diagnosis that she was initially told she was "too young" for. Mum-of-three Emma Clarke now has around a year to live.

Emma, 31, went to see doctors after suffering abnormal bleeding. She was told that it was due to her contraception being "misaligned", lacerating her womb, and that she was "too young for it to be anything else".

But her pain and bleeding got worse. Even then, she was still told that it was due to her IUD contraception. She was eventually able to speak to a specialist, who told her that "I've never seen a womb look that way which wasn't a case of cervical cancer".
