After being hospitalised with necrotising fasciitis, Andy discovered he had developed sepsis and narrowly avoided having his leg amputated. However, it could have been much worse…
If it wasn’t for his wife insisting on calling 111 when she did, Andy might have lost his life: “I think I would have toughed it out.. and that would have probably ended up killing me.”
Andy is now sharing his experience as part of our Sepsis Voices Campaign to urge people not to fall victim to a ‘put up, shut up’ mentality when presented with sepsis symptoms.
