I thought it couldn't get any worse than food poisoning.
Then I got lobar pneumonia. My fever topped 106, I was hallucinating, everything hurt, and I needed 6 or 8 hours of IV fluids in the ER. I was hallucinating from fever even after 800mg of ibuprofen and ice packs to lower the fever, and the visions came back every time I started to fall asleep until I was recovered.
The only people who got taken in before me were the guy who was shot and the guy who was hit by a car and I don't think survived. Compound fracture of the lower leg? Take a number, buddy.
