Hi, I've been dx for 15 years, taken Avonex and Techfidera. Now I have been on Copaxone for about a month. I had the "big" reaction they warn you about (the heart palpitations and feeling like you can't breathe starting on the 4th injection. I have been assured it is not dangerous. (Weird as all get out and totally unpleasant) but that seems to be get less intense everytime I take the shot. I also get a low grade fever everytime with severe chills which seems to last about 45 minutes. The temp is enough to make all my limbs go numb because of increased core temp, but no one who does NOT have MS is really impressed by a temp of 99.9. Anyway, the question is have others here experienced this kind of thing, and the heart/breathing thing is getting better, so will the fever and chills get better too? Also, on the day after a shot I can't stay awake. I sleep most of the day. Is that to be expected?
Thanks for the help
