Woman’s Foot Has Been Swollen For Years, Then She Finally Goes To The Doctor To Find Out Why

When a part of your body becomes swollen people usually visit a doctor for an examination. We often delay doing this as we are reluctant to receive a diagnosis.

However, if there is a serious issue it could get worse the longer it goes on. When Cheryl Murray noticed that her foot continued to swell over ten years.

First, a lump on the side of her foot appeared when she was fifteen which grew larger until eventually, it was the size of a golf ball. Cheryl spoke to her boyfriend who urged her to visit a doctor.

Cheryl’s doctor carried out several tests and the results were shocking. Cheryl had sarcoma which is cancer that affects the connective tissues in the body.

The doctor had to amputate Cheryl’s leg just below the knee to prevent cancer from spreading. Cheryl now has a prosthetic leg and can walk once again with minimal assistance.

However, the twenty-seven-year-old concealed things from David. In 2014, two years after dating each other David discovered what she had been hiding from him.

Eventually, she revealed it to David and he insisted she seeks medical advice however, it was too late.

Going for checks with minor pains and discomforts is easy to put on the long finger especially when life can feel so busy at times.

People tend to behave this way when they presume it could be a serious condition, are preoccupied with other priorities, or genuinely don’t want to deal with the truth.

Booking an appointment to see a doctor often requires taking time off of work. It’s better to deal with the issue rather than avoid it.

Finally, after ten years,  Cheryl Murray after ten years went to see a doctor in Glasgow, Scotland, as the sales had increased in size. It’s hard to believe she waited so long when you see what she was handling.

Following X-rays, a biopsy, and an MRI, the physicians identified Cheryl with sarcoma, a cancer of the connective tissue. “I never believed it would be anything severe,” she stated. “I was hysterical. I was so shocked I could not speak. I seemed like I had been typing the face two times in one day.”
