starting copaxone soon

Hi all due to start copaxone 28th January after having a bad experience with tecfidera,I was hoping taking a tablet would work but back to my original treatment of copaxone... Can anyone give me any pointers of how to help with reaction sites ice packs or heat packs? And has anyone had the tightening of the chest thing?

Heat before injection, ice after. I am on day 8 tomorrow, that system is recommended by Copaxone. Good luck!
