Tecfidera/new Copaxone

A MyMSTeam Member asked a question 💭
Lisbon, CT

I've been on tecfidera for over a year now, and I'm just concerned with the lowering of white blood cells. Has that happened to anyone? If so how did it physically make you feel?

Also is anyone on the newer copaxone? The 3x a week one? Thoughts?
