Lauren, who runs Jankerella Ink and Dreads in Liskeard, battles each day with lung and coronary heart compression, dizziness, lack of power and poor self-body picture resulting in despair.
She stated: “I suffered a bit of from bronchial asthma however total was a sporty youngster. It wasn’t till I hit puberty that I seen the fixed aching and could not stroll for greater than quarter-hour with out gasping for air and turning a brilliant crimson shade.
“From the ages of 10-22 my complete physique would damage however I had no thought my deformed chest was pushing on my coronary heart and lungs and carried on with life considering I used to be simply very unfit for my age.
“It wasn’t till I opened my very own tattoo studio and was working full time that I realised the results my chest and again have been having on my life and that I wanted to analyze additional.
“A number of failed visits to medical doctors who did not know what to do with me and I used to be feeling hopeless.
