endnote n.232: coke-hydrolysis fallout
in Bruce Green’s system, binocular nystagmus and a walloping depression even while the coke-high’s still on that accounts for the tendency toward fits of weeping with his nystagmic face hidden in the crook of his big right arm; […] in Kate Gompert blepharospecticity and now instant cerebral hemorrhage because she’s on Parnate, an M.A.O.-inhibiting antidepressant
Context
A pharmacology-gloss endnote with two theme hits in one sentence: Green's depression arriving inside the high itself — pleasure chemistry co-firing with despair — and apparatus-level confirmation that Kate is on Parnate, here weaponized into a reason coke would now kill her outright.
