Closed Fund treatment for R-CPD on the NHS

Closed on

I would like government to fund the NHS to provide the treatment for Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction (R-CPD). We feel that this disorder impacts lives daily and is beginning to be taken seriously in the medical world.

Treatment is currently only available privately at select ENT specialists across the country, and can cost thousands of pounds.

RCPD affects an unknown number of people and causes uncomfortable, sometimes painful, and embarrassing side effects.
