Hi Niscey! Was the shot in your back or spine? If so , could have hit a nerve.

Hi niscey,

Just to offer a second opinion, I think Cats may be right about it hitting a nerve, since that seems like one of the more probable causes for paralysis.

From what I've read, the exact location where the injury occurred could also have a large impact on how severe or wide-ranging the paralysis is. It's implied that usually, the higher up the spine, the worse the paralysis will be. But from the sound of it, I get the sense that your hard work and perseverance will eventually pay off.

I hope this helps and look forward to hearing about your progress along the way!
