Copaxone

Hi everyone Am starting treatment and am still waiting for it to arrive. There page work at the hospital and the drug company that has to happen which is taking so long to get here. So I should have it within a month. Has anyone had any experience with it? I chose this drug cause it wont affect me to have children dramatically etc and there not a lot of side affects. I still have to take my gabapentin and my baclofen while on the injections. But I do fall pregnant I have to stop taking gabapentin which my doctor warn. Things are getting more complicated But back on point. Please tell me your experience the good, the bad and the ugly. (Been waiting along time to say that phrase the good, the bad and the ugly) Thank you Everyone :)

@sarah_graham , you'll find a lot of previous threads regarding Copaxone, by selecting the "Copaxone" tag that was automatically added to the bottom of your post above. One of the problems with Copaxone is lipoatrophy. This can be mitigated by disciplined rotation of injection sites..

Hi Sarah-graham I was on Copaxone for a few years whilst living in the USA and had 2 of my 3 children (each time taking a break from Copaxone back then). Seemed to work for me with no awful side effects. After child number 3 in 2008, back in the UK, I switched to Extavia which has worked for me too. Good luck in starting on Copaxone. Loo - K 😎
