MS Ireland is delighted to share that Sativex has been recommended for reimbursement, subject to a managed access programme. Details of the managed access programme are yet to be shared but MS Ireland will be monitoring this closely and liaising with the Department of Health for updates which we will be sharing with our community. If you think that this medication would be suitable for you, we recommend speaking to your neurologist.
Spring is in the air, and we’re all getting out and about a bit more. With just over a week to go until The May 50K 2023 kicks off, there’s still plenty of time to get signed up and challenge yourself to walk run or roll 50 kilometres in the month of May. All fundraising is done through our website here where you can log your KM’s, hook up to your fitness devices and blog your way through the month.
The MS Ireland Branch Training Webinar will take place on Wednesday, 3rd May at 4pm.

I’m late. I schedule meetings and forget about them. I double book myself for coffee dates. I overcommit to events clinging to the unrealistic expectation that I can do it all. My life is a perpetual cycle of semi-organised chaos. Time management is my Achilles heel, a mirage glittering in the distance, just within reach but somehow unobtainable. I have always found it incredibly hard to stick to schedules, but brain fog means it’s become substantially worse. I have taken living for the now to the extreme believing that every day I wake up feeling well is limited and I’m on borrowed time. This urge to do all of the things all of the time is accompanied by latent procrastination which just adds an extra dose of panic to my entire existence. This inevitably leads to punishing guilt.
