sepsis is the real deal.

My wife called the ambulance one night for me. Usually they would take me from oceanside to Encinitas the closet scripps hospital driving by TRi-City in Oceanside, at my request.

That night they took me to Tri City citing my cardio readings. Too dangerous to go another 18 miles.

Took 3 days on anti-biotic IV and pills to go home and 14 more on pills to get rid of it.

“Sepsis is the real deal.”

Totally agree. Killed my brother as he waited too long before going to the hospital when he was ill. I had gone into AFib last year, went to the hospital and when they did blood test found sepsis. Hadn’t really felt that bad, but like you took 3 days on IV antibiotics before I could go home on pills after it was under control. If I had waited another 12 to 24 hours may not have made it. Really hard once it takes hold.
