Default Switched from Betaseron to Copaxone
I had been on the Beta since I was dx in 2006. I have been having a steady decline for the last year or more. So I have switched to the Copaxone.

These shots REALLY hurt. It's not bad going in...but then it feels like a bee sting and the pain just slowly spreads out. I keep an ice pack on it for at least 20 min. It takes at least that long to get some relief.

And this everyday thing is for the birds. I am lucky though that my dh helps me with them.

Any suggestions or is this just the way it's going to be?????

Thanks!
