A woman diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer that had spread to her ovaries and her liver, was given three months to live in January 2020. Instead, she is celebrating, having received a new lease on life. Long before Caroline Guy was given an official cancer diagnosis, the 56-year-old knew something was wrong. "I felt sluggish, I just didn't feel right. My stomach was swollen," she told Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. However, in June 2019, a doctor in Spain dismissed her symptoms as menopause. "I'd googled my symptoms and I actually asked him outright if I had bowel cancer and he said no," Guy revealed.

But then in a meeting with colleagues she found herself unable to understand what they were saying, and tests revealed she had a golf ball-sized tumor.



She says she believes the meningioma tumor is linked to the Depo-Provera contraceptive injection, rounds of IVF she had and HRT medication – all of which contain the hormone progesterone.
