Woman who begged doctors to cut off her leg runs for the first time in 11
years

Tayla Page from Cannock, Staffs, had just had her appendix removed when her
leg turned black and had no pulse - but claims doctors
insisted "everything was fine"


>From the age of 15, it gradually became worse and worse to the point where

wind, water or bedsheets brushing against her leg left her writhing in
agony.

She was diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), a condition
which has been dubbed by some doctors as "the suicide disease" as the pain
it causes is disproportionate to the trauma which triggers it, including
surgery, injury or stroke.

After losing her friends, missing her A-Levels and living in excruciating
pain with no known cure for CRPS - she swore to find someone to cut off her
leg or she would end her life.
