Dr. Morris shows up in ICU in red slippers and comes to my rescue (he's a kidney doc, and lithium affects that organ the most, he also was on my case for my acidosis), and recommends dialysis. My lithium level was still 4.0 after the GoLytely. The upper normal limit for lithium is 1.2 to give reference.
The staff was constantly asking me stupid questions to see if the OD had affected my cognitive abilities.
Dr. Morris comes up to me, "Do you know where you are?"
"Yes, [Yuppieville]."
"No, longitude and latitude."He stares at me with a straight face.
