Capoxone/ injection indents and weight loss

Hey everyone,

I have very noticeable indents from my injections of my stomach and some not as noticeable on my legs. Anyone that has lost weight do these disappear or does the indent remain but all scaled down?? X thanks x.

    I haven't actually noticed any indents - but I don't use the injector method I do it manually so I don't get that "punch" from the injection. I would assume though that they would get less as your stomach tightens up (with exercise).:smile:
  • I also do it manually. I have quite a few but it's a small price to pay having indents compared to what the drugs helping.

    Right now mine look worse but I still have a lot to lose, I am hoping when I get closer to goal they will start to lessen. I only have them in my stomach and hips so far :grumble:

    I also do mine manually.

    I've been injecting myself with copaxone for 3-1/2 years, but I don't have indents - mine stick out a little :) but I wouldn't quit taking it for anything. It has made me have my mind back! I still have pain,but I have RA too & have shattered both ankles & cartilage disappearing in my spine so I expect it. But I'm still more active than I've been in years & years 22+. It really works for me!
