Woman, 22, with 40K bra size pleads for help to have them reduced after NHS refuse operation

An actress with size K breasts that weigh a whopping two stone is desperate to raise £7,500 for a breast reduction after being 'repeatedly dismissed by doctors and ordered to lose weight'. Anji Chalk suffers with such agonising back pain that she's forced to use a walking stick to get around and fears she'll be 'permanently disabled' by the crushing weight of her chest.

The 22-year-old has permanent dents in her shoulders and shells out £80 every two months on sturdy 'granny' bras due to the underwires regularly snapping. Anji, who started wearing a bra aged seven due to precocious puberty, suffers with painful sweat rashes and is regularly covered in bruises caused by people bumping into her breasts in the street.

After allegedly being repeatedly turned away by doctors to even be considered for NHS surgery due to her weight, 20-stone Anji embarked on a healthy eating plan and dropped two stone. However 5ft 7in Anji said her weight soon plateaued and, as she was unable to work out due to severe back pain, her weightloss journey ground to a halt.
