Help Shane get the treatment he needs

So this is the story of Shane and why he needs this money.
Before I met Shane he was a hard working man who went to work everyday he loved his job and he also loved to workout and go to the gym.
I met Shane in 2012 fast forward a year and that's when all the problems started to happen, Shane started to get pain down the right side of his back, he went to the doctors on numerous occasions for them to say they didn't know what was wrong Shane tried to carry on with his life as normal even though he was in pain, this pain then spread to the left side of his back, down his leg and arm and even into his face.
He would get pain in his jaw, which led him to have to go to the dentist because along with the pain his jaw his jaw would lock shut, this ended again in nothing being done because they didn't know why.
Slowly over the years things got worse Shane not being able to eat properly his throat going narrow not being able to swallow food properly, which leads to him almost always choking.
His mental health slowly started to deteriorate along with more pain in his back, which meant Shane had to quit his job as he just couldn't handle the pain anymore he tried different jobs I think about 5 or 6 but no matter what he was always in pain, this led to shane having to spend a lot of time in bed lying down to ease the pain in his back.
He wasn't getting any help from the doctors after numerous visits, they had sent him for scans on his back, pain injections, physio therapy he also paid for acupuncture and to see a chiropractor to which none of these worked which made his mental health worse, by this point he also has anxiety now where he will bite the skin off his hands and fingers to the point that they are bleeding and super sore, having to put plasters on them to help him stop biting them.
He won't leave the house much anymore barely sees friends or family doesn't interact like he used to closes himself off from everyone, goes for walks in the woods to be alone.
He's even attempted to take his own life on numerous occasions despite telling the doctors all of this they do nothing except put him on pain medication which he overdoses on daily to try and get rid of the pain.
He is also on depression tablets to help with his mental health too.
Fast forward to more recently and Shane's mum had to ring the doctors on his behalf because he was going out late at night nobody knowing where he is and him sending messages to people saying he can't live like this anymore.
His mum got in touch with another doctor who decided to get another scan done but on his neck this time and the results came back recently, Shane has been having spasms in his muscles all due to an irritated / trapped nerve, this has gone on for 9yrs now so Shane has been in constant pain with all the above both mentally and physically over the space of 9yrs, but to even help with this Shane will need treatment called prolotherapy these are injections which cost from £150-£300 and Shane could need anything up to 17 injections so I have put together this fund raiser in hopes to help Shane's life get better and pain free he has 2 children who he loves but can't be the best dad he can be because of the problems he faces every day with the mental and physical pain he goes through each and every day.
We would appreciate even the smallest of donations because anything will help towards the treatment which he desperately needs.
