Sask. woman says boyfriend removed surgical screw poking out of her head after doctor didn’t believe her

Stephanie Faure knew something was wrong when she woke up feeling pressure in her head.

Surgeons had opened up her skull 14 months earlier to remove brain tumours. They performed a craniotomy that left her with a metal plate, screws and a scar.

So when she looked more closely at her head on Sunday and saw what looked like a screw pushing out through her skin, she decided to go to the hospital.
