Until Sepsis, I was always at my perfect weight as well! Then by body just derailed!! I was 120 lbs. and I am now 190 lbs. wearing 1X! I avoid leaving the house and certain events because of this as well. Diet and exercise has been a losing battle. I truly believe there is a correlation to post sepsis and obesity. I hope to hear from a doctor in response to my post. I feel as if I lost my life at 48. I’m now 53.

Hi @tickleme1, Mayo Clinic Connect is a community of patients to connect with one another. To discuss weight gain and sepsis, please contact your doctor. If you're a Mayo Clinic patient, you can do this through the patient portal.
I'm tagging @andreab, an ICU nurse practitioner, as she may have something to add to this conversation.
