They saw I was all roughed up and did a lot of testing really quickly. Suspected Mallory Weiss tear (cause of vomiting blood), iron deficiency anemia, only what I can describe as “really fked up electrolytes,” tested positive for many a drug, still a kidney infection, MRSA in some lacerations that should’ve been stitched but too late now, and gonorrhea. I’ve got a bed for an IV with like seven different meds. If the tear doesn’t heal itself soon I might need to have it surgically repaired. I am so disconnected from myself and the world that all I know is I want to sleep forever.
