Hi Imagine Dragon- I’m sorry about your son. This definitely complicates things doesn’t it? I have certainly witnessed my son’s health deteriorate drastically in the past few years. Our sons have different addictions, so I would imagine they experience different health issues. My son is an alcoholic and he was beginning to have seizures, both times I was present, once on the phone with him and I called an ambulance and the other time was in my car and I took him straight to the hospital and he was fine with that.

Blood in his vomit doesn’t sound right. I’ve heard that people who use weed can get a condition where they vomit a lot. But the blood part doesn’t sound right.

You’re doing what I would do. I know you have your boundaries, but when they are ill, they need help. My son is an addict, but he needed care. The loss of vision sounds scary too. Even though your son is ill, he’s still addicted and that’s all he knows right now. My son had a 9 hours surgery for shattering his ankle (probably while drinking) and was drinking within a few days after surgery- scared me to death!

I would urge him to go the hospital if you can. The abuse they put their bodies through is so scary. I don’t think you’re overreacting, I would want to know.
