Country star Lisa McHugh<\/a> has revealed that she had been hospitalised and diagnosed with sepsis, a potentially very dangerous illness if it is not caught on time.<\/p>\n The singer was due to perform last night with Nathan Carter<\/a> at Clanree Hotel in Letterkenny<\/a> \u2013 which would have been her first show since she was diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder last year.<\/p>\n However, taking to social media, the mum of two revealed she had been hospitalised with the illness, but assured fans she was doing well, RSVP <\/a>reports.<\/p>\n Posting on Facebook and Instagram yesterday she wrote: “Hi everyone, I\u2019m so sorry to say that I won\u2019t be able to perform tonight with @iamnathancarter at the @clanree_hotel, Letterkenny<\/a>.<\/p>\n “I was admitted into hospital a couple of days ago with sepsis, but I want to reassure everyone, that, I\u2019m in the right place and receiving the best care and treatment to help get things under control. I just need to take a little bit of time to rest and recover, but I will be absolutely fine<\/p>\n “I\u2019m so disappointed to miss out on what was meant to be my first live show back<\/a>, but, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll all have a fantastic night with Nathan as always! I can\u2019t wait to see you all very soon.<\/p>\n “Thank you for all your continued support and understanding \u2014 it truly means the world. Looks like my New Year is starting in March instead.”<\/p>\n According to the HSE<\/a>, sepsis is a life-threatening complication of an infection. Most people make a full recovery if it’s identified and treated quickly, but without swift treatment, sepsis can lead to multiple organ failure and death.<\/p>\n It can be hard to tell if you have sepsis, but the HSE always says to trust your instincts. Symptoms of sepsis<\/a> can be vague and similar to symptoms of other conditions, including flu or a chest infection.<\/p>\n Early warning signs for sepsis in adults with an infection include:<\/p>\n a high temperature (38 degrees Celsius or above)a low body temperature (below 36 degrees Celsius)chills and shiveringa fast heartbeatproblems with or changes to your breathingfeeling or acting differently from normalvomitinghaving a headachefeeling unwell<\/p>\n If you or your loved one has any of the following symptoms, even just one, go to the emergency department straight away.<\/p>\n is acting confused, slurring their speech, not making sense or not their usual selfhas difficulty breathing, breathlessness or is breathing very fasttheir lips are blue or slightly bluepounding in their chesthas hands and feet that feel cold, clammy and look palefeels dizzy, faint or loses consciousness (passes out)is not peeing as much as normal – for example, not peeing for a dayhas a rash that does not fade when you roll a glass over it, in the same way you check for meningitishas severe muscle painis complaining of severe leg pain or difficulty standingis still unwell after 24 hours or is getting worse<\/p>\n Want to see more of the stories you love from the Irish Mirror?
