From an iatrogenic condition.
I had a headache all week last week. On Friday I felt dizzy so I pushed the little button they gave me to call 911. The ambulance came and took me to the ER.
They took some test and told me I was potassium deficient. Odd since I eat a banana every day. Then the man came in and asked me if I still had a headache. I did so he inserted Benadryl into the IV that was already in my arm. Almost immediately I started feeling funny. My throat became constricted and my mouth so dry that my lips were sticking together. I started shaking and it felt like my whole body was just shutting down. I tried to tell him but he wouldn’t take it out. When he left the room, I tried to take it out myself. He rushed back in and I insisted that he take it out. He took one of the tubes out but left one in telling me it was fluid to flush the Benadryl out of my body. I still felt faint like I would pass out. I’ve never passed out before. Some other men came in and they all tried to get me to relax and lay back. But I fought against losing consciousness as if my life depended on it.
The man had excellent bedside manners. But when he told me I would go on a trip, I got really scared. The men told me they were waiting for my heart to slow down. I felt like I was in a concentration camp surrounded by people who were waiting for me to die.
He finally told me I could go home my neighbor had come to pick me up at 1:30 in the a.m. I felt bad for giving the man a hard time when he w as trying to help me. But this morning I googled Benadryl. It’s an allergy medication for itchy skin. I couldn’t find anything about using it for migraines. Well, the headache is gone, but I still have these moments where I feel like a miasma is coursing through my body threatening to lose consciousness.

The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Nietzsche isn't dead. How do I know he lives? He lives in my mind.
