Help Post surgery - Sepsis

[Ready124]

Hi everyone,

This may seem a little odd and maybe a little to much info but I'm very curious and can't seem to find much information on the web.

I have recently had major surgery and due to doing to much the stitches have come away in some parts on the incision.

From this I was wondering if that puts me at more risk of sepsis. If not is there anything I could actually do to increase the risk of sepsis / infection?

Any responses would be appreciated.

Yes, but i certainly wouldn't die by sepsis.

I've had sepsis. You do not want sepsis. It was horrific and has left alot of damage behind for me. Just find another way seriously.

Death by infection sounds like a nasty way to die, so I'm guessing this means that you're not brave enough to use other methods? I know from experience that SI is VERY strong and it takes great courage to CTB, so I can at least see the strange appeal of such a passive death.

So wierd I was thinking about that the last couple of days. I don't think I would want to though sounds awful

If you think that you have an infection, you need to call your doctor/surgeon or go to the ER.

My ex almost died of sepsis. My ex is suicidal. My ex did not want to die via sepsis. It is extremely painful and miserable in just about every way.
