Congratulations David What level are you? I am also lucky and have few medical issues and so far none that are SCI related exclusively. I had arthritis before I broke my neck at age 51, but it really hasn’t spread much more. My left shoulder is bone on bone and it sometimes flares up, but I have been able to control it with over the counter pills. Not surprisingly at almost 76 I have osteoporosis, but with Fosamax we have held it at a relatively low level. I am lucky enough to have an outstanding general practitioner and works with me to keep prescription medications at a very low level.
Staying busy and interested in the outside activities available helps to keep my optimism up. Keep on trucking, good for you.
