A TRANSEXUAL says she has been left half-man half-woman after a health trust refused to pay for the second part of her sex op.

Miranda Lee, 40, who was born Raymond Harwood, wants South East Essex Primary Care Trust to pay for her breast augmentation to complete her change from a man to a woman.

She has already undergone surgery to remove her male genitalia and alter her voice at Charing Cross Hospital – paid for by the NHS.
