Former Hollyoaks star Abi Phillips has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer at the age of 28, she has revealed
."So, I took these pictures before my scans and after my biopsy having a good old laugh about how ridiculously dressed up I looked in the hospital before a gig, not expecting for one moment to get the news that I did two weeks later," she said.
"I'd previously been sent away from the doctors after having found two lumps in my neck, they'd passed it off and said I was 'young' and it wouldn't be anything and I was 'probably getting over a cold' or my body was 'fighting something off'."As much as that's what I wanted to hear I wanted to get everything checked for my own peace of mind.
Phillips, who played the role of Liberty Savage in the Channel 4 soap opera from 2010 to 2013, said she was given the diagnosis by a consultant at Birmingham's QE Hospital two weeks later.
