What it's like living with Hodgkin's lymphoma in your 20s - Olivia's story

Olivia, 22 shares her story and treatment in a video blog for Trekstock as part of our Young Adult Voices series. Check out the next one coming soon.

“I went to my GP with complaints of chest pains when I drink alcohol, at first the doctor told me that this was down to anxiety, and that I had made it up in my head. I persisted and things got worse as well as the discovery of lumps in my neck. The next doctor suggested that I should get tested for Lymphoma as a precaution, just to rule it out. The words Lymphoma meant nothing to me, and I walked out of the doctors feeling relieved if anything with the idea I might have Lymphoma, it wasn't until I got home and googled it that I realised this was actually cancer. (PANIC)!!!!
