I've been taking Copaxon but I have been having unpleasant reactions to it. I'm looking at switching to Lemtada. Does anyone here have any experience with Lemtada? Or any suggestions? I'm not wanting to do anymore injections.

Have you thought about trying Tecfidera? I switched from copaxone to Tecfridera and have had little to no side effects.

I do not have any experience with Lemtrad. But copaxone has been the only medication I have ever been on. It's been almost 6 years now since diagnosis. I have awful reactions to Copaxone. Stinging, burning, welts, itching, bruising, and many lumps. I hate the injections, but they have kept me from having another relapse. Just thought I would let you know you're not alone with injection sight reactions. Stay strong and fight on.
