Default Copaxone

I am 25 years old and just diagnosed with MS 18 months after having my second son. I've been through a very long and rough journey these 18 months prior to my confirmed diagnosis, anyhow, my doctor is giving me a week of IV solu-medrol for the current flare up I'm going through then wants to start me on Copaxone. I've read a little here and there about the drug, but I'd rather hear from someone who's used it / is using it, whether they like or if they got really bad side effects from it? Not very excited about the whole, daily shot thing, but it is definitely better than the flare ups I've been having. Well, any information you can give me on Copaxone would be wonderful! I really appreciate it!

Welcome to NeuroTalk:

Here is our MS forum link:

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum17.html

There are many people there who use or have used copaxone.
I suggest you ask there too, because often they don't look around NT often and may miss this question here.
