Woman spends £20k to manage debilitating pain caused by Endometriosis
Stephanie Burgis, 41, is in a similar situation.The specialist who operated on Stephanie found endometrial tissue on her bladder and bowel and said that her condition was among the most severe they had seen.Ms Burgis' condition has since worsened, and she is now on a waiting list to be referred for more NHS treatment.'Debilitating pain'
The campaign group said waiting times in Wales were "pretty grim", with some of their members being told to expect waits of six to seven years for specialist care.Campaigner Beth Hales says women are being forced to choose between paying for treatment themselves or living with debilitating pain "The waiting list to see me in the private sector is in the order of weeks," he explained. "As opposed to sadly, in the order of months in the NHS sector."Mr Griffiths said it made a "a tremendous difference", playing an "educational role" in raising awareness of the condition. But he said more specialists are needed.
