Kirsty Gallacher reveals first symptom of her benign ear tumour and why she told doctors not to operate as she opens up about her health woes


Kirsty Gallacher has revealed the first symptom of her benign ear tumour and why she told doctors not to operate on her as she opened up about her health woes.

The TV personality - who had co-presented The Great British Breakfast since July 2021 with Simon McCoy - told how a benign ear tumour had caused her 'severe tinnitus' and had left her unable to work. 'As I adjust to managing my condition, I will carry on with my less disruptive work commitments and continue maintaining a healthy lifestyle and training so I can get back to my normal routine quickly. It's not always clear what causes tinnitus, but it is often linked to some form of hearing loss, Ménière's disease, conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, multiple sclerosis and anxiety or depression.
