In statements, recorded on a mobile phone because she cannot stand people in the room, Ms Seymour said she felt “buried alive” and that she was “suffocating”.

Extracts
Deborah Seymour, from Scarborough, has been diagnosed with illnesses including Long Covid and ME, but despite tests no physical cause has been found for other symptoms including severe head and neck pain.
The 50-year-old, who said she felt “buried alive”, was initially told by York Hospital she faced a year-long wait to see a neurologist, but it has since been reduced to nine months.
