Let me fuel nightmares for you, as I don't see it discussed much pretty much anywhere.

There's a species of bacteria more terrifying than Burkholderia, not because how fast it kills, but rather it is more terrifying because it makes you insane.

It is a species that can have hematogenic spread, yet dont appear on blood culture. Can cause brain abscesses yet fail to show on MRIs or LICORs. It can cause severe Keratitis, yet ophtamologists specialists in infectious diseases will look at your eye and say it is normal. The only way you can reliably identify this bacteria is through 16s RNA sequencing, something most IDs has never done in their whole life.

It slowly kills you, and has a survivability ratio of only 50%, even in imunocompetent hosts. It is resistant to pretty much every antibiotic known to me but TMP-SMX and Linezolid. Not only that, whenever it manifests, wherever it manifests, it always has the same cribiformic pattern that makes any sane person skin crawl.

Like this picture, which is my fucking eye and now I am going fucking blind because ophtamologists ARE NOT FUCKING DOCTORS, FUCK YOU. Spent 50k USD on those BS shitty made-up area of medicine and now I will bring it to my grave. Fuck this man.

Nah that's nothing. There's a rare type of prison disease where you can't fall asleep anymore. It sounds horrific. You start to exist in that weird half awake state all the time. Even strong drugs won't help. It's always fatal too like all the prion diseases.
