TuesdayCOPAXONE TIP #9
I was on Avonex for 2 years then they changed me to Copaxone.
I was excited about the autoinject2 that came with it. I used it for about 6 months and decided to try my injections without it. It is so much better without it! It doesn't hurt or sting as much. The swelling and whelps are not as big and don't stay as long. I go straight in on my stomach and hips and at a 45 degree angle on my legs. I wish that I had tried this sooner. If you are on Copaxone, you might try this. I know that everyone is different and it may not be the same for you, but the needle is so little it is very easy to do. I think the force of the autoinject2 caused a lot of the swelling and knots. Just thought I would share HUGS CHRIS Labels: Copaxone (glatiramer acetate) |
