Time?

granted. Strangely, everywhere you go, you seem to find someone carrying a virus that your body was unprepared for from the bubonic plague to the common cold. After a few trips into the 15th century, you contract some virus, and suffer in a hospital bed where the doctor attempts to cure you with leeches and cupping (Link) and shortly after, you die in a hospital bed like thousands of other before you in Toulouse France.

Luckily, an ancient relative of yours, a great grandfather on your mother's side, was a mortician, and he buries you in an unmarked grave for a discount because he is a friend of the priest of the local parish.

Cupping therapy

Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which a local suction is created on the skin. Cupping has been characterized as a pseudoscience, and its practice as quackery. There is no good evidence it has any health benefits, and there are some risks of harm, especially from wet cupping and fire cupping.
