A self-employed businesswoman who suffers from “excruciating” pain due to endometriosis has been told she must wait for up to two years to be seen by specialists at a Paisley hospital.
Alex Coward was diagnosed with the painful condition – where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows in other places, such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes – back in 2021 and it has impacted her physically and mentally.
The 34-year-old, who lives in Paisley with her military husband Chris, also 34, has a maximum of just five days a month when she’s not in debilitating pain.
