"I had a f-ing freak accident. I don't know how something, well, it wasn't little. It actually hurt," she shared, not specificying a specific incident or diagnosis. "It doesn't really happen often, but it became something that is so big to the point I was literally paralyzed. But yeah. And that little thing almost cost me my little one to come. But it didn't."

She continued that the ordeal left her in intense pain. "Yesterday I was feeling good. I came home, but I came home high as a kite. Today, I woke up sober, honey. I'm dying. Like, I'm dying," Cardi said. "I swear to God, if I don't feel good in four hours I'm going to the hospital and I don't give a f-k. I'mma exaggerate this s-t so I can get more morphine. Morphine me down! I don't give a damn."
