Copaxone

I was moved from Rebif to Copaxone and I'm struggling. I find the after part of the injection painful. The needle depth is set to 11, which is 1 off the highest, and I'm small (5ft 1, 8.3 stone) but I get a build up of the fluid, bruising and generally feels like I've been pushed in the stomach for ...

Copaxone

I’ve just started the 3x weekly copaxone injections Does anyone have any tips? I’m finding the initial injections to be quite painful and the hour after the area is quite sore it limits my movement.

Copaxone

I've been mostly on copaxone for 15 years. I often consider having a break. Anyone stopped any treatment without any consequences? I'm 61 diagnosed at 32. Relapsing & remitting but possibly secondary progressive.

Copaxone

Hi, anyone else on Copaxone? How are you finding it? It's been a month for me, 3x a week and I've noticed I get the painful red lump when I inject. I read that it is a common side effect. Also I get dizzy, tight chest and quickening heart rate which I also read can be normal. Anyone else?
