Copaxone CSYNC Autoinjector

Hey there everyone, so I have recently been diagnosed and put on copaxone, with the medication arriving tomorrow. I also have the CSYNC autoinjector in my drawer, ready to go.

Second thoughts about copaxone

I was diagnosed with relapsing remitting MS 1,5 year ago. The hypothesis of my neurologist was that i had it for at least 10 years before the diagnose because of the numbness, tingling and other symptoms that i was experiencing. They never were severe until 1,5 year ago (when we finally found out th...

Copaxone- depth?

Hi, I have just this week started copaxone. In my hips it seems fine, feels a bit like a bre sting for ten minutes or so but I can deal with that. The difficulty is with my thighs. It is fine injecting, I don't have a problem with that, but almost immediately after my skin around the injection site ...

Copaxone lumps

Hi Just wanting to ask for advice from anyone who has been on the DMT COPAXONE. I've noticed in the last couple of months that injecting into my left thigh has become a bit of a nightmare. I have found the location to become itchy for about 2 weeks and now I've got like a long lump under the ski...

Pain at injection sites Copaxone

Hello, So I've been taking great care with where I'm injecting and rotate them not injecting in the same area more than once a week. Usually I'm lucky not to have any pain for days afterwards but the past three injection sites are very sore which makes having today's injection quite difficult. Not...

Stopping copaxone

I just thought I would post on here, not really sure why but I just need an outlet. I've been on copaxone for about 3 years now and I think I've finally got to that point of where I just don't want to do the injections anymore. Like they're mentally exhausting me and affecting me in a way I don't u...

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?...

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 ...
