A Scots mum was diagnosed with cervical cancer after spotting 'black blood - like tar' and suffering 'unbearable' pains. Carrie Henderson was constantly tired, experiencing pain in her pelvis and suffering regular ear infections when she went to see her GP two years ago. A biopsy confirmed she had stage three cervical cancer and she began treatment before being given the all clear last May.

She asked me when I had my last smear test
