'I knew something was wrong at that time'
A woman who went to the doctor with menopause symptoms said she was left "numb" after finding out she had a brain tumour.
"I knew something was wrong at that time," she told Belfast Live. "My memory was bad but I was putting it down to brain fog, which is a common thing associated with the menopause." "I went to A&E because I wasn't well," she said. "Now, I had the ongoing symptoms for vertigo, sinuses and the menopause. A doctor had put me on HRT patches but this night I was taking palpitations. I was in bed and I was starting to get afraid. I was lying on my side, then the other side, I would sit up and then lie down flat. But the palpitations weren't stopping. My heart rate was 108 - very high for someone lying in bed, resting.
"He said he would give me a CT scan. The month before, I had three antibiotics for sinus infections, but the antibiotic they had given me was making me really sick. So I was really dehydrated." "The doctor came to me and said 'I've got something to say to you, something has showed up, do you want me to tell you now or do you want your family'. I said 'I need my husband'. On Friday the 13th in January - I'll never forget it - my husband John came over and I was told I had a brain tumour."
