Shirley spoke to Richard Madeley & Susanna Reid regarding her recent health story. She said she first ignored fan comments about her alarm and then sought the help of her GP as more concern messages began flooding in.
She stated, “It has been the past two weeks. It’s been like an whirlwind in all of my other activities.
“I did a Paso Doble, and put my left arm up. A few people also got in touch with me, which I ignored. Then, there were about eleven people who wanted to contact me, so I decided I should go see the doctor.
“I took my daughter to the doctor. She had a look around, but couldn’t feel any. However, her blood test results from months ago were there. It was my mistake that I didn’t go back to get the results. She was shocked by them.
The ballroom champion told how she will undergo further tests at King’s College, hospital in London on Friday after initially sparking concern over her testosterone levels, with the star hoping to get her results back soon.

Shirley shared her story last week about needing urgent scans of all her organs following concerns raised by a number of doctors regarding her hormone levels.
Initial investigations by doctors to find a lump in Strictly’s star’s armpit led them to believe it was a tumor. However, one doctor found that her testosterone levels were the highest in females.
Shirley said that although her health problems can cause her to go down the ‘dark path’, she’s trying to live each day as it comes.
Keep positive. Shirley shared her story of how urgent scans were required on her entire body after her’mortified” doctors raised concerns about her hormones.
The Sun asked the ballroom dancer to explain how she does not have enough information. [the doctor]I won’t speculate as to the cause… My test results made her mad.”
“She said, “We have to do this.” Let’s first deal with hormones, and then we’ll see what other issues there are.
“My doctor was shocked by my results,” she said. It’s important to me that I take each day as it comes. Because it is easy to get lost in my health worries, I don’t try to put too much emphasis on them.
I don’t have sufficient information so I continue to trundle forward. That’s how I coped when I had my last cancer scare — it comes from my mum, who is very stoic about everything’.
The hopeful star assured that everyone would be updated once all scans, which are taking place at King’s College Hospital London, were complete.
Shirley thanked Strictly fans for reaching out to her concerns last month after she noticed a lump in her arm while she was on BBC’s Judge.
“With sincere gratitude and a warm heart, I would like to express my appreciation to all of you for your kind words and for being concerned for me.
