Hard to say: I'm not sure i understand what you mean when you say "injections." what type of injections are you referring to? If you are referring to the spinal tap needle then i would only be concerned of headaches after the tap and rarely an infection from the spinal tap if it were done under less than ideal conditions.

Am puzzled: If you do NOT have MS, why in the world would there be a reason to use the archaic injectable disease modifying agents for MS?? Side effects include depression, fatigue, thyroid problems, liver abnormalities, injection site reactions, flu-like reactions, and general malaise.
