Welcome Chrisd70 . I was on Copaxone for 10 years. It's a great one to start with, as it has the least side affects. The shots are a pain, but you get used to them. Is the heat in SC bothering you now?

Welcome Chrisd70 After being diagnosed 11 years ago, I started with Copaxone 20mg, then went to the 3xs/week 40mg. 3 months ago I started Tecfidera as I was getting tired of doing the injections and it was getting hard to find spots to do injections.
