Anybody Have Suggestions About Coping With Copaxone Site Reactions?
Had Copazone daily originally but stopped because of the site reactions. Other injections did not agree with me either and I can't take other DMD's due to a gastric disorder I have.

Hope this makes senses, my brain in not cooperating well this evening. As I said before, its the lesser of the evils!
It might b that u have a decision to make---continue or not, there other meds⛑😇
