A woman from Lancashire made the heartbreaking decision to have her hand amputated after a tiny scratch from her dog triggered a flare-up of an excruciating condition known as “suicide disease”.
Gill Haddington, 48, from Morecambe, has been living with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) since 2016. The rare and debilitating condition causes severe, chronic pain, often triggered or worsened by even minor injuries. In Gill’s case, it first took her leg, and then her hand, reported the Mirror.
