Just been wondering, alot of stories here are similar and to some degree so is mine. But I was wondering if there is anyone else who had sepsis that caused them to have surgery?

Hi Stephen, can you clarify which kind of sepsis are you talking about, from bacteria perhaps?

I've just read your story. Yes, I've had bacterial endocarditis and as result, my mitral valve became damaged and had to be replaced.

Fidel...it was bacteria..but to this day, i don't know how i got it. No surgery, no dental work...was feeling pain in my side at work..had to leave work early, vomited when I got home. I slept a bit and my wife took me to the hospital.

I found this website after my surgery. Unless you have gone through this I don't think you can relate. Nice to hear and see other people who have gone through it. Know you are not alone.
