multiple sclerosis
"I started Copaxone 2 months after being diagnosed.  I was on the medicine for one month and loved the fact I wasn't experiencing any body aches, headaches and felt fine. HOWEVER, the site reactions over the course of the 2 weeks got worse.  I had hot, fiery red colored 5-6 inch welt reactions at sites, that became itchier after the 2nd week of injections. I wanted to cry because I was itching nonstop 24hrs a day. I stopped taking hot/warm showers which helped but I still itched 24hrs a day.  I developed rashes from my neck to my face. I stopped after 1 month. I would have liked to stay on Copaxone but rashes not located at the sites was a concern for the doctor and shared solutions team (the shared solutions team is great by the way!)."
