he repeated that anecdote several times in poems, stories and interviews.
One is in the 'Notes Of A Dirty Old Man' (ca. p121):
"I'm just sitting in a room on N. Kingsley Dr., out of the hospital with hemorrhages, stomach and ass, my blood all over the county general hospital, and they telling me after nine pints of blood and nine pints of glucose, "one more drink and you're dead." this is no way to talk to a suicide head."

Another is the story 'Life and Death in the Charity Ward' which you will find in 'Erections, Ejaculations and General Tales of Ordinary Madness' or 'The Most Beautiful Woman in Town and Other Stories.'
Also in 'Confessions Of A Man Insane Enough To Live With Beasts', section 4, as collected in 'South of No North.'

One more in the poem HANGOVERS:
Last Night of the Earth Poems pg 340
your drinking companions are
killed by it.
you yourself are in and out of
hospitals
where the warning often is:
"One more drink will kill
you."
but
you beat that
by taking more than one more
drink.
