A woman whose “terrible headaches” and low energy was dismissed as depression says a trip to the opticians saved her life after she was diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Debbie Organ, 45, had visited medics constantly for eight weeks with a range of health concerns.
Her symptoms began with headaches and low energy while she was on holiday in July last year - which doctors suggested was depression, in the aftermath of family deaths of family members, and medics gave her medicine to improve her mood.
