For those who have used or still use Capaxone. The side effect of indentations on the skin what exactly do those look like? I have a few spots where my skin looks like it might be scared or like it is almost loose but it is not sunk in. Just curious, I think what I am seeing is old scars but I just haven't noticed before but just want to be sure I'm not missing a side effect.

It's time to move to an oral med. I take gilenya. It's a super drug. May God bless you.

Yes I use Copaxone and have many scar areas on my legs and lower stomach. It is like getting Liposuction..Copaxone dissolves any fat under the skin and eventually you look awful..God help you if you gain weight. I was very thin for 10 years taking Copaxone then I suddenly gained weight..except in the areas of scars..the fat finds a place to go and you end up looking lumpy. Never had to try to lose weight in my life and now I have to try to lose the lumpy spots. Try to move the shots all around but you will run out of room soon enough..xx
