I started Copaxone in March and also get the intense itch at the injection site, but it happens 2 days after the injectin. I'm told it will lessen with time and as my body adjusts to the med. I use ice before and after. I also have a bee sting feeling about 5 minutes after injecting. My arms and legs are the worst. I use the autoject and like that fact but wonder if that has anything to do with it. I hope that it will lessen with time. Good luck. keep us updated.
