Sumy TB Clinic

00:00:33.125 --> 00:00:43.250
In 2000 just three month before my release from a prison an I was x-rayed

00:00:43.250 --> 00:00:51.667
and it was found that I am sick with the tuberculoses, they started the treatment but have not finished as I was released from the jail

00:00:51.667 --> 00:00:58.417
and in principle the treatment in the prison was very pure

00:00:58.417 --> 00:01:04.917
I came to this clinic, but I was a systematic injection drug users that time, so I often was late or missed the treatment

00:01:04.917 --> 00:01:13.208
And I often had the abstinent syndrome. Once I talked to Ivan Adamovich [the doctor]

00:01:13.208 --> 00:01:20.083
And he offered me join the [substitution therapy] program. He told me about the program

00:01:20.083 --> 00:01:30.833
He explained how this medication worked; he also explained that I can go though the treatment here in the hospital

00:01:30.833 --> 00:01:35.292
The use of the drug just prevented me from a treatment but now

00:01:35.292 --> 00:01:44.083
I now because of the efforts of the guy I can receive the substitution medication here in the hospital; and everything is good in principle

00:01:44.083 --> 00:01:53.292
So here I receive a TB treatment and the treatment against drugs

00:01:53.292 --> 99:59:59.999
So now I can just receive the good treatment, I know that I do not need to run or go anywhere anymore…
