Been there... almost did that. Decided to skip that last part. Sepsis is one nasty thing. It comes on as quick as a bolt of lightening and you don't even know what is happening, but it doesn't feel good physically or mentally.
I caught all kinds of criticism because I drove myself to the ER, 23 miles away. When I left home all I had was a pain in my side that I guessed, due to having one before, was a kidney stone. So I headed on up. About 10 miles away it kicked in. My body started to shake top to bottom, it was 85 degrees outside but I started to feel so chilled that I even turned my car heater up to maximum (didn't help). Because every muscle in my body was shaking constantly the only way I could drive was to grab the steering wheel and push myself back into the seat to obtain a sturdy grip on the wheel. The shaking also got me so winded that I thought my lungs were going to burst, I was breathing so hard. I thought about pulling over and calling 911, but I also was convinced that by the time an ambulance got to me, I would be dead, so I kept pushing on.
Luckily this was 1am and there was no traffic. I got to the ER found a place to park my car, walked in and no one even asked my why I was there or my name. They just grabbed me by the arm and hauled me in to the inside. They thought I was having a heart attack but within a few minutes it was diagnosed as sepsis. They immediately hit me with massive anti-biotics and within a little while the shaking and chills had stopped and they were able to determine that it was being caused by the kidney stone that I had thought was there to begin with. The Doctors, of course, gave me a 'come to Jesus meeting' for driving there, but also ended that scolding with "but, you probably would have died waiting for an ambulance".
My advice is DON'T GET SEPSIS. Now I only wish I could tell you how to avoid it.
