Funding an NHS degree as a career change

Hello!
Today I accepted a place on the BSc Occupational Therapy, an NHS degree.
I currently already have a degree, a PGCE and a Masters. I have been a teacher for 12 years.
I understand that tuition fee loans are available for second degrees in health subjects, so that is fine, but I am sat here suddenly worried that because I have a PGCE and a Masters that suddenly I won't be given a tuition fee loan for my career change.
Can anyone help? I've tried to apply to student finance tonight but I have to call them and it won't let me do it online
