Struggling to Get an EDS Diagnosis in the UK Healthcare System

I once again had a GP tell me that they are almost certain I have EDS, but that they can't refer me to a specialist bc it isn't funded in my area of the UK. they apologised for "the need that isn't being met", gave me another medication to take, and that was it. I can't afford to go private because I am a uni student. what other options do I have?
