September is Sepsis Awareness Month. Get Ahead of Sepsis is a national effort to improve sepsis early suspicion and recognition and timely treatment, as well as prevent infections that could lead to sepsis.
SEPSIS.
September is Sepsis Awareness Month. A topic close to me, as I lost a close family member last October due to Sepsis. She went into the hospital for an unrelated and non-emergency medical procedure. She died two weeks later, in the hospital from Sepsis.
Although, the CDC states that Sepsis begins outside of the hospital for nearly 80% of patients. A CDC evaluation found 7 in 10 patients with sepsis had recently used health care services or had chronic diseases requiring frequent medical care.
Four types of infections are most often associated with sepsis: lung, urinary tract, skin, and gut.

A constant, one-sided headache that does not respond to any treatment and last for.weeks.to.months. It’s not a Migraine, in fact typical Migraine Medications make it worse. Guess what? I will save you the legwork because their is a condition and treatment for this debilitating chronic headache! It’s another “rare” diagnosis–because we are lucky like that 😂. There is also ONE treatment that works, and once you find out about it, you will appreciate it. Research is slowly coming out, the new “herbal” supplement is claimed as Melatonin, nope, melatonin did not work for me. Read on…

6/30/17 Update McConnell is working on the moderates Capito and Portman, offered both double-digit billions for their yes vote. He is putting the bait packaged as the offer would help the opioid crisis. As of early 6/30 both declined and apparently want more money for their states because of the Medicaid cut. I really don’t know why he is offering billions for opioids epidemic in Maine and Ohio. Treatment would not be covered if both states accept the 2 billion dollar bribe to cut ESSENTIAL HEALTH CARE BENEFITS--his offer to buy these votes will increase, as he may have more flexibility with reducing a small amount from the trillion-dollar tax credit.
Reminding Heller and Collins why their no vote is vital. And congrats to them, stroking their ego, and thanking them for their support is needed. We can’t lose these two.
McConnell is also tightening up as he approaches the Conservatives. Contacting the conservatives should also be on our email, phone, fax and social media to do list every day. We have until Tuesday when they return from recess. I’m up all hours of the night waiting to see if he has cut a deal while America sleeps.
