Rosie -

Sorry to hear about the NHS prejudice against implants - it's a little bizzare when you think of the cost in paying for 24 hour care as an alternative - but please look at the Stanton-Hicks article carefully.

What they did was an iv infusion - not a pump - albeit at more than 3x the suggested pump dosing. I don't know if you could get a dr. interested in doing it, but if you could, it might be a nice way of flying in under the radar.
