I've been on Copaxone for almost a year (my anniversary is on Nov 11th!!) and despite a few itchy red lumps at the injection sites at the start, I've been fine. The first few months my body was only getting used to it but I changed my injection time to right before bed so I wouldn't be bothered by the itchiness or hives. The injections are quite small and the autoject is a great help as you don't have to use the syringe bit yourself. It's definitely easier to start off with. Even the emotional bit of holding a needle was tough for me at the start.
hey Zoe i have been on it for about 3 years and i have not had any bad reactions just the normal red lumps and itching you will be fine. Graham Fraser
