I started propagating this cutting of my monstera a month ago and now one of the leaves is drooping and appears to have hundreds of tiny black cuts all over it. The other leaf is completely fine Exept for the tiny black at the base of the leaf. I've seen no pests and have treated the plant for a fungal infection but it seems to be getting no better. What should I do? What could be wrong with her?

Most of those look fingernail sized to me – do you have small children in the house / potentially pets batting the leaves?
do you have a cat/dog/enfant/young child?
When it was rolled up inside the stem, there was pressure or damage to it so when it came out, it shows up all over the leaf. I have a stem that appears this way at the moment from damage caused by what was holding it up so I suspect the leaf to come out looking like yours when it grows out

From your pictures, it appears to be damage that the rim of the jar is creating on the stem as it leans on it.
