I just started Copaxone in Oct. The shots do not hurt but I think its the medicine going in and it feels like bee stings over and over again. No reaction on my skin. This last from 5 - 15 minutes. Anybody had this feeling and what do you do to help it go away. I was wondering if this goes away with time.
Thanks for any information

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I am on week 5 of Copaxone. My first week or so it was pretty intense pain that lasted about 10 minutes, bad bee sting, and I had a good size welt on my skin.
I am finding that with time and experimenting with depth, the pain is lessening, at least in length of time. I do still get bee sting pain, but very short lived. If you see my other post, I self injected this week, and found less pain and reaction overall. It will get better, hang in there and try different depths.
