Can't believe how things developed after the last update I posted on 17 Jan. I got very sick again on 22 Jan and my GP sent me to hospital once more with a high temp. This time I collapsed just as I got to the ER. I am grateful for the doctors and nurses who worked on me in resus to stabilise my high heart rate and very low blood pressure. I went downhill so quickly that for a brief time I thought there was a possibility that I might not make it. Ended up I was in septic shock. I am out of hospital now and am doing much better. But I never thought something so small and insignificant such as a scratch / cut / bite on my hand could get that bad.
