In that previous post from earlier this year, you confirmed that you finished the treatment and met the absence requirements, how is this different now?

In any case, you still can apply and ask for discretion, provided you can demonstrate the conditions required by the Home Office.

Were you physically in the UK five years ago? If not, when did you return to the UK?
