I could've written this post in September. I also switched from Beta to Copaxone. On Betaseron, I continued to have flares with too much fx and severity, and continued to develop new lesions.

It is too soon to be sure if the Copaxone is working. However, some initial things that are hopeful are not having a flare in either:
  • December (I had a UTI then, and that generally triggers a flare, even when caught and treated early)
  • or April (I generally have an annual flare each April.)
Am hoping that I can get past September (one year since my most recent flare, and even past 2009 without another flare.

Best wishes to you, as you also make the switch.
