[New post] I’ve recently been treated in the hospital for sepsis caused by an untreated kidney infection and Ecoli was found in my bloodstream. I’ve been home for almost 2 weeks and have been running a low grade fever of about 99.2-99.6 every night for a week. Is this serious and do I need to seek urgent care?
