Had to stop again for Insurance reasons and income.
Working / Worked
It seems to be working. MRI's show no new lesions and some lesions appear to have healed. I don't like the skin reactions to the injection. The knot under the skin takes days to go away (just in time for the next injection in that site). The injection site is itchy at times.
Working / Worked
I take copaxone every day and work fulltime, but the pain is getting worse and harder to work.
Working / Worked
Stopped because I hate needles

Too many exaserbations
