Jerry's wife Claudia Plascencia said that he had been "delirious and vomiting" before being taken to hospital and was in "unbearable pain in his leg and bottom”. It was just 48 hours before his passing that Jerry shared a video on social media in which he told fans that he was in the hospital after taking the vitamin jabs.
He said that he was not sure why he felt so ill and admitted that he was in huge pain from the injections. Jerry said in the video: “I am in the hospital because I have a problem in [my] bottom. By mistake, I used [the injections on] three different days, far from each other. I injected vitamins and the day before yesterday I did the same in the other part of my bottom. I have been suffering strong pain, around 12 levels out of 10, for six hours.”
