Amy Dowden has shared a new update on her cancer treatment, revealing that she ‘broke down in tears’ while questioning why this is happening to her.
The professional dancer was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in May this year.
The Strictly Come Dancing star later confirmed that she wouldn’t be taking part in this year’s series, after doctors found more tumours following a single mastectomy.
In a post shared on her Instagram Story, the 32-year-old uploaded a photo of herself sitting up in a hospital bed with a cold cap on while receiving treatment.
In the picture, Amy can be seen with her eyes closed, resting one hand on her face while the cold cap is strapped on underneath her chin.
‘I hardly slept. Broke down into tears as soon as I got in the room. Port has been a success. Cold cap on. So far coping and not as bad as I thought with cold cap,’ she wrote in her caption.

‘But just wishing this wasn’t happening to me! Nurses here are just incredible. Thank you NHS and I’ve got my fellow pink sister sat by my side and made sure I walked through the door this morning.’
In her next post shared on her Story, Amy shared that she was feeling better after being given a cup of tea.
She shared a photo of herself holding the hot beverage, with a camera person visible in the background of the shot.
‘Got my tea which makes me feel better. Just feeling very emotional today mixed with nerves and fear but like my lovely nurse has said I just need to think of the end goal,’ she wrote.
‘I’ve always set dreams and goals in life I guess none like this one (always dance related) but I’m going to see it like this.’
