The OP stated that they return to the UK and travel in Spain and Europe. They didn't mention using the EHIC in Spain and neither did I, only you did that.
I advised, as requested, that they might be able to acquire a new, valid, EHIC issued by Spain. I went on to advise regarding travel insurance and finally advised that they should not use their current EHIC, as unlike you, I was not aware that the OP knew this. I've just read the post again and again I can't see where they say that they were aware of this as you claim.
Again, advice was requested and given, none of which was unnecessary. You seem to be introducing narrative that didn't exist, why?
