Oh my thank you so much I will definitely read this. Yes we have many many doctors treat him for this and everyone is doing the exact same test over and over again and obtaining the same results. He is at a huge well known cancer hospital in Houston and they continue to perform these fancy test same test yet again. They said today they don’t know and maybe the next time he comes in with it they will identify the cause. So very frustrating. Thank you for your feedback.

When I had Septic Shock, the doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with me because I didn't have "textbook" symptoms. They informed my family that I wasn't going to pull through. The infection was from cellulitis and strep bacteria which naturally occurs on the skin made its way into my bloodstream and attacked my prosthetic knee. Finally, they had an Infectious Disease Specialist check me out. He figured it out and saved my life. I have had sepsis infections 3 more time since then and I am on a lifetime antibiotic. I also have been found to have E. coli in my blood and urine.
