I recently has sever sepsis, a PE and pneumonia all at the same time, I did not have a fever. Not everyone who gets sepsis or other infections gets a fever. I had extreme chills, mottled skin, diarrhea extreme weakness couldn’t breathe (PE). I had passed out or blacked out at home.
At the hospital my BP went down hill and my kidneys were not doing well. My whole body blew up. I gained 30 pounds in 2 days in ICU, due to inflammation. I was put on a broad spectrum antibiotics. My oxygen level was very low. Then had PE removed. I stayed 4 days in the hospital.
I’m very thankful to God and the medical team that saved me.

I got an std from my cheating ex but was asymptomatic, didnt know until i was in the ER diagnosed with septic shock, i ended up spending 4 days in the ICU. my blood profusion issues led to a hypoxic brain injury and ive been dealing with the brain damage ever since. Very lucky to be alive and im eternally grateful to my doctors who worked incredibly hard to keep me alive!!

I had septic shock two weeks ago. I work with children and I caught norovirus but didn’t know it until I was in the hospital. I was non stop throwing up and extremely tired. I became unresponsive in my apartment where my mom had to dress me and take me to the hospital. I was hypothermic with a temp of 94.1 and little urine output and my urine was brown. I got septic rash all down my legs and extremely low blood pressure. Almost didn’t survive the night. Spent 4-5 days in the ICU. Very very thankful for my mom, my dad, my er team, and the ICU team.

My dad passed away last week due to sepsis secondary pneumonia. I wish I had this knowledge so that I knew what to expect. Thank you for the informative video

[syapengzz]

As a student param with a learning disability i THANK YOU. these have helped so o much

[ishitadasgupta]

Thank you for the informative video. I lost my grandmother recently due to septic shock. She suffered a lot in the hospital for 2 weeks, she is at peace now..in no pain😢 . Things happened so fast we could not process how and when it became a septic shock.

[jajadingdong]

I had MRSA induced sepsis and septic shock. Took 16 weeks to recover after emergency surgery. I barely survived.

[genehenrie]

This video clearly explains Septic Shock, not the same as sepsis alone.

[QuietDriver]

Severe sepsis from an intestinal blockage is the only thing that's scared me in 15 years of living with severe Crohn's disease. Experiencing it once was once too much and probably the closest I've come to having the lights go out.

[Jaylikescar]

My dad had sceptic shock in the hospital after a month with covid in early 2020. Thanks for the clear info ❤

[waelfadlallah]

I was waiting for a specific video on sepsis !

[Bill.R.]

This was excellent--going to use for my nursing students

[adudeontheinternet]

I was in septic shock back in January from having major complex surgery in December. The surgery was a walk in the park on a sunny day compared to trying to recover from septic shock.

Two weeks postpartum after an emergency c-section, I developed uterine sepsis. I had a fever so high, I was hallucinating. The ICU was full, and they didn't think I was stable enough to be transported to another hospital with an open ICU bed. They kept switching IV antibiotics, hoping something would work. My IVs kept failing, it was almost every 48 hours they would have to find another vein. My incision site was not infected, it was definitely due to the nature of my surgery (infected from the inside, out). My liver went into distress and started to fail. It was an extended hospital stay and I had an RN sitting 1:1 with me during the worst of it. I asked her if I was dying, and she had a horrible poker face.

Positive note, I have ZERO fear of needles. Between being stuck for a viable vein and the endless blood culture draws, I lost all squeamishness.

[JackReynolds-wg]

Thank you for better explaining just 'exactly' what Sepsis actually is.

[DarkSister.]

I had sepsis due to my gallbladder leaking, I didn't know what it was, I was feverish, in agony, vomiting, dizzy to the point I felt like I had severe motion sickness. I went to the emergency room, they sent me home saying I'd pulled a muscle?!? 3 days later I was rushed into hospital, pretty much on my death bed...they quickly figured out what it was and pumped me full of antibiotics and fluids, and 3 weeks later I had my gallbladder removed. It was not a fun time.

[lovefaith]

So good this is. I love what you do here. So grateful
