I had cellulitis sepsis and it took a long  time to recover. Although it was two years ago ,whenever I become ill with a cold or become run down I get  fatigue and dizzy spells. Has my body been effected long term by the sepsis?

    How were you diagnosed with sepsis ? Was it caused by infection or something else?

    It depends how the sepsis affected you and how was your health condition prior to sepsis. 

    Most people who have chronic conditions such as diabetes, or other diseases does not cope well after sepsis.
