What is sepsis ?Good afternoon all.
Daughter is home plastered in mud as the weather has been awful but she had a great day at the new job.
Neighbour's scan passed off OK; she has to wait for the results. I took her for a coffee and then to the supermarket afterwards.
I have booked a physio appointment for Friday. My back is seized again
Blood poisoning - septicaemia. I don't have it, but that Egyptian tort probably does.
Sepsis is when an infection gets into your bloodstream. It can be rapidly fatal. Bad stuff.
What causes it ?Sepsis is when an infection gets into your bloodstream. It can be rapidly fatal. Bad stuff.
It most often appears when a person or animal has an infection. The immune system produces chemicals that it puts into bloodstream to fight the infection but in sepsis they cause inflammation throughout the body. This can then cause septic shock which is a medical emergency
It's triggered by another infection. In humans that might be a lung infection or urinary tract infection perhaps that leads to wider infection.
Thank you ! I didn't want to start problems in that post ! If you had to say something that someone didn't like . Thank you again and I hope you understand.
Thank you ! Some new people don't understand we just want to help ! Thanks again for answering my question . You all are great !
You sort of lost me there, I presume you're referring to a post elsewhere! Glad to be of help though!
Yes, there's an Egyptian Tortoise in another thread that's very sick.
Night Linda I hope the back's a bit less sore tomorrow. Is there nothing a bit more cuddly than an armadillo in here?Anyways, it's time to turn in for the night for me. I am hoping I will be less stiff in the morning.
Time to go find one of the many corners of the CDR and cuddle up with an armadillo or two for the night
Good night all!
We have a lovely vegetarian snow leopard in here somewhere- she especially loves carrots, and might be enticed to snuggle if you have some for her!
Good morning all.
I don't mind cuddling the armadillos. Montgomery, the chief coffee table, is missing Adam and needs his cuddles and cheese treats.
My back is improved this morning , but I am still going to physio tomorrow.
