Chronic Daily Headache - Speaker Change

We are announcing a Speaker Change.

We are delighted to welcome Dr. Fionnuala McCann as our speaker for this event.

Dr. McCann is a Neurology Specialty Doctor from Southern Health and social care trust in Northern Ireland.

In this talk she will take us through the complicated issue of Chronic Daily Headache (CDH).

In her local hospital Dr. McCann developed a treatment pathway for monoclonal antibody therapy for patients with chronic migraine. During the pandemic, she and a colleague co-developed a digital educational resource called “Headache Friendly Lifestyle” for patients with chronic headache. They are also in the process of piloting another programme called “Migraine Self Care” .

Dr. McCann will explain the definition of CDH, the variations, the different factors involved in headache becoming chronic and what can be done to help those who live with this condition every day of their lives.

This event is sponsored by a HSE National Lottery Grant from HSE CHO Area 1 Sligo
