Takeing Copaxone too

hi  im on the Copaxone train to wellness to and i have the legg nots that arent going away and some pain i dont do under my arms i do the shot like u would a booster shot do to the swelling and pain  and the booster shot way is working out great and less swelling and no knots at all whooo for that

hips and tummy doing ok to its just my leggs thinking about doing the under sides see how that works out and about that diet thing all i can say is im going on one ive gained 20 lbs in 3 months and sooo not happy with that  and that funny thing with that is im eating healthy as it is i eat fish chicken very little red meat all the fresh veggies and fruits i can get  next to no sweets  so im going to blame it on not being able to exersize and maybe alittle on the Copaxone  sence ive gaind the 20 lbs being on the Copaxone

  owell just thought i would put my 2 cents in here and let you know that i was in a realy bad flair when i started Copaxone and havent had one sence then and i can fell my fingers now  pluss less trips to the bathroom too  but i take my shots every day at the same time give or take 1/2 hour do to my kiddys still running around and such lol

and i will keep takeing the dreaded shots if it will keep me out of a fliarup so hang in ther give Copaxone a chance on a day to day shot cause ive had Ms 20 years and can we say in denial land head in the sand  im ok just leave me alone ill do it myself  stage way to long and Copaxone is well worth takeing  ok bye for now hope this helped .

MB,
Thanks for the positive plug about sticking on the DMD, even when its not a favorite thing to do.  Statistically it doesn't much matter which drug you use, they are all equally effective at controlling relapses.  The important thing is we get on a treatment and then stick with it to give it a fair chance to work.

I'll have to check out the doxipine cream idea, thanks!

be well,
Lulu
