copaxone

338416 tn?1420045702 on or off my copaxone, I always worry about disease progression. I think that is just normal. Is there any way you can apply for some of the financial assistance programs to get you back on a dmd? Hearing everyone's woes with the cost of the drugs and having to make these tough choices makes me very sad. We should be treating our people in this country so much better. Lets hope that your relapse here is over soon and that you return to your *normal* state.
Avatar f tn Hello, I started copaxone 4 weeks ago, after the first week I started to get flu like symtons so I phoned my ms nurse who told me that she didn't think it was the copaxone and to carry on with it. After a couple of days the flu like symtons disappeared and I was left with big reaction sites and big lumps under the skin, I showed my ms nurse who said they were bigger then normal but yet again to continue.
Avatar f tn If copaxone has been around for so long, why hasn't the price come down? Just curious.
1637739 tn?1371688706 I have been taking Copaxone going on 5 months now. For the last 3, I have had the itchy lumps for a day or two after. I thought maybe they would get better but they really aren't. The PA at the neurologist office said they probably wouldn't. My question is this: Should I continue to tough it out or should I switch? I am curious from others if they have dealt with this and what they did about it. The itching isn't that bad, it's the lumps that bother me the most.
338416 tn?1420045702 Took my Copaxone today, for the first time in six months. I've been off it because I couldn't afford it. Well, after my leg started acting wonky again, I went to the neuro and told him I was ready to get back on Copaxone. (This was when I still thought the copay was $75, like last time.) Then we started the process of financial assistance....
Avatar f tn Ive been on Copaxone for approx. 4 weeks now. It is going well and for the first couple of weeks after I injected the red lump that developed would be gone by the next day. Recently though this red lump is staying around and becoming very itchy, Im now 5 days since injecting in one area and still red lump. Ive also started to have waves of feeling really clammy and hot,this passses after 4 minutes then it comes again. Usually starts an hour after I inject.
567489 tn?1297250714 I can call the copaxone folks in another hour but thought I'd float this question to the group too.... I'm leaving for a week in FL (first time travelling since starting copaxone) and wondering what is the protocol for travelling with sharps - do I take my whole sharps container with me? in my checked back or carryon? any other tips for a new traveler?
Avatar f tn 2006, I was put on Betaseron for a while, but had to discontinue because I never got over the flu like symptoms. I was then put on Copaxone which I did well on, but then stopped taking on my accord. My LP came back negative, but my MRI shows lesions in my cerebellum and brain stem.
Avatar m tn Hi, my wife has MS. Recently she has been prescribed Copaxone dispensed by the auto-ject pen. The first few injections were not pleasant, and she developed a welt with each of them. She has since been playing with the needle depth trying to alleviate some of the welting and pain. However regardless of how deep the needle is the welts come, and now they are staying for longer periods of time. Is this normal? Is there something she can do to find some relief?
1983221 tn?1333506185 t go away after being off the Copaxone we decided the two were unrelated and I started taking Copaxone again, last night was my first injection after the break. My question is - last night I woke up feeling like I had the flu, I was sweating, ached all over and had a massive headache. I know these are side effects of the interferons but has anyone had this while on Copaxone? I had no reaction like this the first few weeks I took Copaxone.
1469703 tn?1372041476 //www.ehealthme.com/ds/copaxone/hallucinations,+mixed "On Aug, 31, 2013: 9,277 people reported to have side effects when taking Copaxone. Among them, 5 people (0.05%) have Hallucinations, Mixed." the most recent was one person in 2011. It would be difficult to prove hallucinations were a side effect of copaxone, based on those very small numbers. There are no withdrawal symptoms from going off copaxopne.
382218 tn?1341181487 because this study, like many others, was supported by the drug co. that developed, produces, markets and distributes Copaxone. So I guess we take the info with a grain of salt, and hope that the study was designed appropriately and objectively, and that results are reported accurately and ethically. If so, and the encouraging results are repeated in future studies, then it really would be great news for Copaxone users.
1979418 tn?1432135441 I have never heard of this side effect from copaxone and not sure how it could effect your cycle. Anyway, I had a hysterectomy way back when so I couldn't have this symptom regardless. Sorry.
1678656 tn?1369233818 Did they tell you that you had optic neuritis? That was my first flair as far as we know. I've had it 3 or 4 times. I don't remember. I went on prednisone a few times and it worked every times. Lately, for the past few months off and on, I've been having jumpy vision. It gives me pretty bad migraines. I get migraines very easily so I'm on daily meds for that as well. It seems to work well but it doesn't stop the things that trigger my migraines.
Avatar m tn Hello, I am sorry that I am saying this, I was pre-diagnosed with ms that was recently confirmed not ms. I am sorry that I had the news that most of you reading this will not hear. However I had accepted the diagnosis and was prepared,to move forward with my newly found life. And as a result almost a year of injection copaxone treatment ms that I don't know what to do with. I hate to throw it away but am not sure if I have another choice. Does anyone know of any other options?
5373382 tn?1369738172 Started my Copaxone on May 24 and it was fine and had no pain to speak of injecting.
Avatar n tn Hi Ali. I can tell you my experience with Copaxone. I was just diagnosed in Dec of 07. I haven't been on any other MS med. I was put on Copaxone. In those 3 months I struggled with depression, sleeplessness, gained 10 lbs and had terrible dark circles under my eyes. It completely changed my personality. I took myself off it and finally after 2 weeks am starting to feel like myself again and have dropped the weight and the circles under my eyes are gone.

1168718 tn?1464983535 But, I have just recently wondered about a question about weight gain. I am paranoid about gaining weight, and for some reason have not really thought about this issue when discussing the DMD's. I was actually relieved that someone finally is doing something about my situation. Anyways, what my question is ...... Has anyone experienced weigh gain, and if so, how much is expected?
Avatar n tn Anyone out here using Copaxone? And if so for how long. I think I am going to try it, and was interested in some first hand information. shots, side effects, if you think it is working, etc. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
400099 tn?1282954864 I am SO glad that you posted this...I have noticed (just started Copaxone about 5-6 weeks ago) that I do have changes in my tastes. In fact, not long after I give myself an injection, I notice a strange taste in my mouth, almost like thiere is increased saliva production. This is probably TOTALLY my imagination... Yes, there are injection site reactions. I was getting BIG welts when I injectied with the auto-injector. I decided to try an experiment and go back to self-injecting.
