Mum given months to live after doctors wrongly blamed cancer symptoms on Covid jab and told her she had an STI
A nurse manager has been given just months to live after medics wrongly dismissed her cancer symptoms as side-effects of having the Covid jab.
Katie will now tie the knot with her long term partner Tom Cronin, 35, a teacher, in an emotional ceremony next Monday . The couple are also trying to raise money to fund a potentially life-prolonging drug not available on the NHS so they can spend more time together as a family. “My gynaecologist was astonished that this hadn’t been picked up by the nurse practitioner and rang them to tell them he was very angry about my misdiagnosis. I work in healthcare myself, so I knew it was something more than a bladder prolapse or an STI.”
Katie, who works at Horton General Hospital in Banbury, Oxon, added: “At the time, I had been suffering from a nasty chest infection, so doctors thought it was just some of the infection showing up on the scan. They conducted a biopsy called a bronchoscopy which looked at the issue with a camera and again reassured me it was still just an infection.

Higher anxiety and perceived trauma among COVID-19 patients: a prospective comparative study - BMC PsychiatryBackground and purpose Psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression, and traumatic stress are not rare during infectious outbreaks, as the COVID-19 pandemic has posed a great concern to the general population. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether experiencing psychiatric symptoms during COVID-19 is the result of the burden of carrying an illness or the COVID-19 itself. Method Two hundred ten subjects and three different groups of participants (COVID-19 patients, university staff, and orthopedic patients) were recruited. They answered a demographic questionnaire, Yale-Brown Obsessive–Compulsive Scale (YBOCS) test for OCD symptoms, Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) for perceived trauma, Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) for anxiety, and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) for depression assessments using phone or face-to-face interviews. Result At least one OCD symptom was observed in 85.7% of the subjects. However, there was no significant difference between the 3 groups (p = 0.2194). Perceived trauma was significantly higher among COVID-19 patients followed by university staff and orthopedic patients (23.73, 16.21, 11.51 mean IES-R scores respectively, p = 8.449e−14). COVID-19 patients also showed higher anxiety (mean BAI score: 17.00) than the university staff and orthopedic patients’ group (9.22 and 5.56 respectively) (p = 6.175e−08). BDI score did not show much variation for depression, the mean score was 9.66, 9.49, and 6.7 for the COVID-19 patients, university staff, and orthopedic patients respectively, (p = 0.2735). Conclusion Perceived trauma and anxiety symptoms are significantly higher in COVID-19 patients and the symptoms of OCD and depression do not differ between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 people, so the necessity of screening and following treatment of patients with COVID-19 should be kept in mind. Trial registration IR.IUMS.FMD.REC.1399.761.
