I have been taking copaxone for 3 years with no side effects. And the problem I am having now may not be related to it, but several friends, (also on copaxone) are going through the same thing. Mine started several months ago with daily bouts of loose stools. Now it's to the point that I may not even feel the urge to go, and if I do, it may be too late anyway. I either have to stop eating to run to the bathroom, or will need to be near one shortly after eating. It's always diarrhea or constipation; no happy medium. I have no cramps or anything like that. I thought maybe it was ibs, but it's just odd that all 3 of us are having this very same problem. Out of the 3 of us, one started copaxone as soon it was available, i've been on it for 3 years, and the third person has been on it for about a year and a half.

Anyone else have this problem or something similar? Changing my eating habits doesn't change the problem. I have found nothing that changes it. I'm really to the point that I don't like to leave the house because I don't know when it might hit!

Any input would be appreciated!! Thanks!
