BBC Reporter Goes Public About Her MS

THE television reporter Elizabeth Quigley yesterday described the moment she was diagnosed as having multiple sclerosis as “unreal”.

Speaking publicly for the first time about her condition, the BBC
journalist and wife of former SNP leader John Swinney said she was told
she had MS seven years ago.

“I was 28, living in Glasgow and preparing to buy my first flat. I had
just started a fantastic new job as BBC Scotland’s political
correspondent. And my life was about to take a turning I could never
have expected,” she said. Unconcerned about the tingling sensation in
the left side of her face, Quigley eventually visited her GP, convinced
that she was “a complete time-wasting fraud”.
