A plumber who thought he’d pulled a muscle in his neck was diagnosed with cancer. Lewis Turnbull, 24, of South Shields, went to the doctor and was told to go straight to accident and emergency for blood tests in July last year.

It was then doctors gave Lewis and his girlfriend Philippa Gibbons, 22, the devastating news he had stage 2 Hodgkin Lymphoma Cancer, reports Chronicle Live.

Philippa, of East Boldon, Sunderland, said: “He works as a plumber and thought he’d just pulled a muscle at work. “He went to the doctor who said there were no muscles in that area and we were sent straight to A&E for blood tests. “He started chemotherapy a week later and has had 10 rounds of chemotherapy.
