Have very little problem with MS since going on Copaxone
Working / Worked
I use copaxone for my MS it seems to be slowing the progress of the disease very well!
Working / Worked
I have been on Copaxone for a year and a half. I have had a big relapse on it, with a new lesion on my c-spine. I have no side effects other than the site reactions which have been very minimal up until I added LDN.

on hindsight it was OK
Working / Worked
It took awhile for it to kick in, but I feel much better now. I think that it has slowed the progression of the disease, allowing for some re-myelation, as my symptoms are not nearly as noticeable - except for when I get too tired, or too warm. I have had no real problems with the injections, yes I hit the odd muscle which aches afterwards, but other than that, pretty good

I get injection site reactions--itchiness, small welts, redness. nothing too bad. One time, after injecting I had that "rare side effect" the paperwork mentions where I had shortness of breath and flushing, but I just laid down and breathed slowly and it went away within about 5 minutes. No big deal. And it seems to be working, so I love it!
Working / Worked
I loved it except for major injection site reactions, and had to discontinue due to respiratory reactions. I felt good on it and had no relapses for 2 years.
