You're hitting muscle,Laura. I don't inject in my arms at all because I don't have enough subcutaneous tissue there. Tried one time and that was it. Hurt too bad.

Debbie, In my 9 years of experience on Copaxone, what you're experiencing was/is normal. As others have said manually injecting seems to help. The site reactions for me, lessened lots over time. I remember the Copaxone burning pretty bad early on.
