Sunday, September 6, 2026 - Former Coronation Street actress Tracy Shaw has given fans a worrying update as she continues treatment for breast cancer.
Shaw, 52, revealed that doctors are concerned about the effects chemotherapy is having on her body, raising uncertainty over whether she will be able to proceed with her sixth round of treatment.
She has described the past five months as extremely difficult, with severe side effects leaving her exhausted and struggling physically.
Shaw has reported a series of painful complications, including shingles, nerve pain, swollen hands, nail problems and peeling skin. She is due to see her surgeon and oncologist as doctors assess whether her body is strong enough for another round of chemotherapy.
