Autoject?
I am sorry youre having such severe reactions! I have had similar (though maybe not as severe) lumps and welt for the past 2 months on copaxone.
I recently talked to an advocate from SS and she suggested injecting manually. She said shes been on C for 12 yrs, manual, and doesnt have skin issues. She also recommended ice before and warm shower afterwards. I tried all this and have felt a world of difference. I was petrified adn nauseated at the thought of manual injections but I muscled through and have had so much relief.
I also take a zyrtec every night and think that helps a bit too. I lotion up like crazy to avoid itchiness and I avoid skinny areas or those with friction (from clothes or from being a bit plumper than I'd like
I think the C is helping me immensely, but you will have to weigh yourbenefits against the negatives. Try experimenting with manual injections, ice/ heat timing, and benadryl or something. But definitely make sure a doctor knows abouit what youre going through.
Good luck !
