The Effing 13%

I avoided it for one hundred thirty two days.
Approximately 13% of individuals using Copaxone will experience, at one time or another, a transient reaction immediately after injection. This reaction includes flushing or chest tightness with heart palpitations, anxiety, and difficulty breathing.
They really nailed that description. Let me tell you, it's all kinds of fun to experience alone.

I know I have a lot of things to be grateful for, and I'm trying my hardest to stay positive and upbeat about this whole stupid situation, but sometimes it just really, really sucks.
