Young Scots woman who 'felt a bit ill' at work nearly dies of sepsis

A young woman who fell into septic shock while at work has spoken of her traumatic experience.

Rachel Flynn, 25, was in the office in Edinburgh back in September 2022 when she suddenly became very unwell. Before she knew it, she was in the back of an ambulance being rushed to hospital.

Eight months on, Rachel is preparing to raise funds for charity Sepsis Research FEAT, who research and design treatments for sepsis, by running a half marathon - something she wasn't sure she'd be able to do a few months ago.
