Hi Gary- I contracted E Coli bacteria in my urinary tract and blood. When I got to the emergency room my temperature was 105.4 and my heart rate was 177, either or both of which could have killed me had I not been otherwise healthy. My whole system shut down. I was five days in the hospital getting IV antibiotics, hooked up to a catheter, etc. It was a descent into hell. But I am doing much better now and the infection is out of my system.
Moral of the story: nothing is more important than your health.
