Anyone know if people with endo can get approved for MAID?

I live in canada ontario btw. I know this sounds really extreme but in my situation it’s really not. I have stage four endometriosis and it’s never getting better even with surgery. I don’t have a network of friends and family. I have nobody to look after me I’m pretty much bedridden and it’s been horrible. I only got diagnosed properly like four years ago and before that they had gaslit me into thinking it was all mental illness, so I was focussing on my mental health instead of on a real disease because I thought all of these horrible symptoms were in my head, including not being able to eat without feeling extremely nauseous, but it turns out it’s because it’s all over my intestines.

At this point, I’m just suffering and I’m never going to be my old self ever again my doctors have me on zero pain management and I’m so tired of fighting with them. I feel so much pain and nausea on the daily. I pretty much feel my colon stuck to my abdomen my belly looks pregnant and still no doctor wants to do anything about it. Can anyone tell me how I should go about asking for maid and if I will get approved? That information would be really helpful. It’s either I choose to die with my dignity, intact or I keep having bowel blockages until one does me in.

Anyone else getting partial obstructions?

My poop is skinny I can’t even relieve myself without giving myself the runs using miralax. My bowels are defiantly all stuck to other muscles or organs maybe even got endo eating threw them now, but no one wants to do surgery until it’s a complete blockage/emergency. I’m scared I don’t know how to make them care…I don’t want to have a full blockage that sounds terrifying. Im bed ridden every-time I try to be a little active my bowels get more inflamed I can’t even let out gas well. So painful like nothing I’ve ever felt before.
