Q: if you had sepsis in your body, would your blood tests be normal? or could you feel sick for a while before the blood tests would start to show abnormalities? don't feel well and worrying. my cbc and cmp were all normal today?

: Normal blood count and CMP are not compatible with medically defined sepsis. If your CBC and CMP are normal you are not septic.

If your blood tests were normal and you dont have fever or feel 'sick' you dont have sepsis. Sepsios is a serious condition and from your description you dont have it.
