Just Started Copaxone - When Will The Stinging End?

I had my first injection of Copaxone on Friday morning and I was unprepared for the stinging that followed which lasted over an hour. I had my second one today and again the stinging was unbearable. Has anyone been on Copaxone injections? Did you have this experience? If so, how did you combat it?...
