Sepsis kills 37,000 people in the UK every year, and many more worldwide, yet it can be difficult to differentiate from viral flu infections in the early stages. This film explains how you can spot the difference and when to call a doctor or go to hospital. If in doubt, seek medical advice. The symptoms of SEPSIS can be described like this:
Severe shortness of breath
Extremely cold hands or feet
Palpitations or racing heart
Slurred speech
I've never felt so bad
Shivering uncontrollably
If you are concerned, call NHS Direct on 0845 4647 or go directly to A&E.
