I'm like, hey, would it be possible for you to take my temperature?
I think something's wrong.
I might have a fever.
And so she takes it.
So it's 103.
What's your pain scale right now?
And I'm like, it might be at an eight or a nine.
She's like, have you ever been at a 10?
I'm like, no, I don't think so.
Cause nothing bad has ever happened in my life.
Like I've never gotten a bad injury.
Exactly.
She's like, so I think that this is your 10.
I do believe that you have sepsis and your body is shutting down.
She's like, we're going to admit you right now.
Because if we don't, something bad is going to happen.
I find out later that bad thing is in fact death.
Like I would have died because it was in my bloodstream at that point.
They put me on morphine.
And this is when I really find out that it's bad because the morphine didn't stop my shaking.
