Why Use The MS Information Line?

  • Are you newly diagnosed with MS and feeling worried, frightened or simply looking for more information?
  • Have you had MS for some time and are experiencing difficulty with aspects of it?
  • Does a member of your family, a colleague, a neighbour or a friend have MS and you would like some support information?
  • Would you just like a friendly listening ear? 

I googled MS Ireland and I rang the helpline; the lady on the phone was an angel… I didn’t understand what I was going through, and suddenly she had this language that articulated how I felt. Finally, someone understood.  Someone knew what I was going through. I wasn’t so alone. That was such a eureka moment for me, she put me in touch with the regional office.
