Working and sickness

I have extreme endometriosis and migraines I’ve lost 2 jobs because of my illness I’m now working 3 days a week to cope with it but it means I’m earning next to nothing I currently have no mortgage but I have bills I’m left with 300 for food prescriptions travel to work and I have physio/massage therapy if I have any money left over. At the moment I have savings but they are slowly going to run out. I’m in no position to up my hours my job is very sympathetic to my illness and I take on the occasional extra day when I can but I’m often bed bound for 3 days a month and extremely exhausted do to my fatigue constantly. Has anyone got any suggestions on ways I can make my money stretch or bring in some more money I’m already budgeting for food it just worry’s me that when the savings run out I’ll have very little and then if I miss work due to sickness I’ll be down even more. I also possibly need more surgery but can’t afford to only receive ssp for two weeks
