Coronation Street star Beverley Callard has been keeping her fans updated with her cancer journey. The 69-year-old soap star was diagnosed with breast cancer a few months back and has been posting regular updates on her social media ever since.
Posting to Instagram on Wednesday, the actress shared that she was in quite a bit of pain. In a clip where she spoke to the camera, Beverley captioned the post writing: “A mixed day today, some positive and some not so positive! Getting ready to go back to work next week but first… Two hospital appointments.” In the video she shared that she was due to go back to work in the next week and was “very excited” for that. But then she highlighted the negatives.

“The negative side is I have had quite a lot of pain,” Beverley said. “In my right neck. I had to go to the GP today and it is a suspected blood clot, which can happen if you have got cancer and if you have had surgery.
“Now, it might not be, but you know when you think ‘oh, no, please no.’”
This meant that the actress had to return to the hospital to run more tests. “But, I’m feeling fine,” Beverley reassured her fans. “I’m feeling quite positive.”
The Corrie legend announced in February this year that she had been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. She underwent surgery in April but later shared that the cancer had spread to a lymph node.
She explained that her consultant had been in touch to confirm the surgery “went really well,” and that they had managed to “cut the cancer out”.
