If it’s hot, I hate it! When MS temperature sensitivity torments you
Comparing the weather in Ireland to a three-seasons-in-one-day-affair is an understatement, and one that makes MS look like the butt of the joke when Uhthoff's symptoms will turn you into an attractive social media meme.
Something woofin’ is coming!
Stay tuned!
Non-immunosuppressive people with MS in Ireland not allowed early COVID-19 vaccination?
Disease-modifying treatments try to calm down the inflammation that causes MS by interacting with different parts of the immune system. In other words, immunomodulation is at play. Not being on immunosuppressant treatment for MS therefore does not mean a full or partial absence of MS, and its divide is smaller than its difference as everyone with MS is immune-mediated, regardless of which treatment they are on.
The Paradox of Our Time
We have multiplied our possessions but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life, we've added years to life not life to years.
At war with COVID-19. And MS!
In some way, we all have COVID-19. It makes us battle with ourselves. It makes us seek answers where there are none. In a similar fashion, it feels as if MS reigns in entire families. You, the broken brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. Your family, the tragedy of not being able to hand you its cure.
COVID-19: Will there be Christmas?
So, there is nothing wrong with being heartbroken because you can't spend Christmas with your family, but by staying away, you show them how much you love them. You don't want to risk their wellbeing because you rather want to have them around for a good while longer.
COVID-19, I need to curse for a minute
I've had it with some people's coronavirus apathy. As a result, you'll find more cathartic curse words in this one article than there have been in the last nine years of writing IMSM. Why now? People's meaningless line of indifference towards societal norms & the greater good in some people. Case in point, watch this disorganised, disgraceful lot.
