Hi Natalie and Welcome.

Sorry you had to go through that with tactless docs.

Someone else mentioned it, but location of the leisons are more crucial for symptoms than the number. I only have twelve total, but they are in not so fun places and give me issues.

Copaxone gave me nausea for a couple of weeks when I first started, but that went away. I started to have some insomnia due to it too, and switched to taking my med in the morning. It has helped.
