Week 6
Dimitri asked me to share some of his challenges as this has not been an easy journey.The biggest challenge was pain control, neuropathy and shortness of breath. It took a few days of adjusting medication, but once the pain was under control, Dimitri could sleep better, making everything else less of a challenge.
Dimitri ultimately regained his bladder control, no longer needing any catheterization or meds, which is remarkable given his spinal cord injury level (C4).
