A haiku about #endocarditis, courtesy of #chatgpt :

Heart's inner lining,
Infection takes its harsh toll,
Endocarditis strikes.

I had not appreciated that *Enterococcus* was no longer considered a common bacterial cause of infective endocarditis.

Means that some "Definite" cases now being reclassified as "Possible".

Also highlights need to use clinical judgement, not just criteria. #IDMastodon #MedMastodon #medicine #endocarditis #antibiotics #microbiology #infectiousdiseases

My stroke was 11-14-21 and on the anniversary I wondered why I'm still here. I almost died from #endocarditis, #sepsis, and then the #stroke. People say I must have something important to do but that freaks me out. I don't need any kind of expectations pushed on me.
I guess I'm glad to still be here. I'll see what I feel on 11-21-23.
