Default Starting copaxone again next Wednesday

I finally heard from the pharmaceutical company (Acreedo Pharmacy) and they will be delivering my shipment of copaxone on Tuesday. A nurse is coming to my house on Wednesday to teach me how to manually inject. The last time I was on copaxone I remember the first two weeks as being a breeze, and then the site reactions and IPIR's began. I am hoping that the smaller gage needle and manual injections will help. The neuro's have made the recommendation that I use manual injections. I am trying to remain positive. The idea of manually injecting does not bother me too much, but the possibility of having another IPIR does freak me out a bit.

The good news is that my co pay is $24.00 a month. Of course the last time I did not have any co pay.
