Brabio pain (and pregnant)
I have just this evening taken my first dose of Brabio. The pain is unreal! I have previously taken Rebif for 10 years, Tecfidera for 4 and I have, until very recently been on Tysabri. I am 8 weeks pregnant (it's not public yet except on hear so I appreciate discretion) and Brabio (or Copaxone) has been licenced as safe to use in pregnancy.
I manually injected in my leg with no injection site pain but the pain after has reduced me to tears! It feels like I have been punched so hard and been given a dead leg. Is this normal or has anyone experience anything similar? I don't know what to do if each injection is going to hurt this bad after. I want to be as well as I can with my MS for my baby but this is unreal!
Any advice is greatly appreciated xx
@lizstevens , congratulations, he says discretely. Unfortunately, injecting can take some practice and even then, we can hit a sensitive spot. So, don't feel that this is representative of other injection sites. You might find the following guide useful :- https://www.copaxone.com/injection-assistance/how-to-inject Brabio is a generic version of Copaxone.
Thank you very much for your reply and the link you have provided. I have read a few techniques in your link that I will try for next time. Many thanks, Liz x
