Mandy Sellars Biography

Mandy Sellars is one of the most popular and richest Television Personality who was born on February 20, 1975 in Lancashire, England, United Kingdom. Mandy Sellars, a British woman who was born in Lancashire on 20 February 1975, has a rare genetic mutation which has led to extraordinary growth in her legs.

Some doctors initially diagnosed Sellars with Proteus syndrome in 2006. This is a rare condition that affects only 120 people around the world. However, more recent tests have identified a PIK3CA mutation. Although some reports still refer to her condition as rare Proteus syndrome in some cases, Sellars has denied the diagnosis.

Sellars was born with abnormally large and misshapen legs and feet, which continued to grow at a disproportionate rate. In a November 2009 interview, she estimated that she weighed about 21 stone (294 lb or 133 kg): 6 stone (84 lb or 38 kg) for her upper body and the remainder in her legs and feet (210 lb or 95 kg).

Her left leg was amputated above the knee in 2010. It was the subject of a TV documentary, Losing One of My Giant Legs. 22 months after the surgery, her leg began to grow at an accelerated rate and her limb began to balloon again.

For many years doctors were unable or unwilling to diagnose Sellar. However, the condition is unusual in many ways. Joseph Merrick, also known as the “Elephant Man”, may be the most well-known person with Proteus Syndrome. There is no cure.

Mandy Sellars, then 19, moved out on her own to be independent when she was 19. She earned a B.Sc. She received a B.Sc. in psychology from University of Central Lancashire and continued living independently as an adult with no helpers. She was able to get around with crutches and a wheelchair. A modified hand-controlled car helped her.

At the age of 28 in 2003, Sellars suffered from deep vein thrombosis. This left her paralysed from the waist down for six to eight weeks. She had to learn how to walk again after that. She contracted MRSA three years later after she developed a blood infection and her kidneys failed.

Ultimately, it was expected that she would have to have her legs amputated. When the television documentary series Extraordinary People devoted an episode to her called “The Woman with Giant Legs” (2008), it paid for her trip to the United States to consult “renowned orthopaedic surgeon Dr. William Ertl and prosthetic whiz Kevin Carroll.” After examining her, they gave her hope that she would be able to have a less drastic amputation than the one recommended by her doctors, which would have severely curtailed her independence.
