When Kat Denisi was diagnosed with breast cancer at 32 she was put into a medically-induced menopause to stop her hormones fuelling the tumour.
The set designer also underwent radiotherapy, which left her with burns on her body and chemotherapy, which caused severe nausea.
When her white blood cell count dropped dangerously low she had to spend time in hospital but she says doctors did everything they could to treat her symptoms.
Now 35 and cancer-free Kat, who lives in Edinburgh, had hoped to be feeling a lot better.
But little did she know that the "crash menopause" would affect her so much.
