Hematitic Urmic Syndrome
Enterohamorrhagic E. coli can actually leave the intestine and get into your bloodstream. If that happens, it can make it all the way to the kidneys where it causes inflammation in the kidneys that can end up causing kidney failure. And then what it also does is it it causes damage in your small blood vessels that then leads to small clots forming inside of your blood vessels. The three main signs that you see are renal failure, kidney failure, this hematitic anemia and thrombocytopenia - low platelet count.
