Help me be able to continue to afford to go to private physiotherapy to get relief from 4.5 years of chronic pain.

by L172 in Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom

Like many others, NHS have failed me for almost 5 years now, misdiagnosing me and treating me with over 15 different pain medications that (now after going private) I have learned were for nothing. At £80 a session,  on top of treatment I’m trying myself, I just can’t afford to keep going. I need to book my own MRI private scan which is quoted £600 as well as purchasing my own compression socks for the pain in my calves. The current diagnosis is Cervical Facet Joint Syndrome in my neck and Lumbar Nerve Root Irritation in my lower spine. These two combined makes my day to day life agony 24/7. On flare up days I am unable to walk on my left leg, and most recently was bed bound for 3 weeks due to being unable to bare any weight on it. This issue happens more often than not and at 25 years old isn’t something I’d like to have to live with. I’ve been able to attend private physio twice however can’t manage to keep paying to receive the help. So hoping there’s people out there who can donate to help me continue to try manage this pain.
