When Marilyn Scully arrived at her Concord home after work that day, she was shocked to see her sturdy 47-year-old husband clutching his head and screaming in pain.

Immediately, Scully called 911. As she followed the ambulance in the family pickup, she was sure about the culprit - her husband had just received a cortisone shot for his chronic back pain - yet she still expected to drive him back home that night.

But on May 30, 2001, less than 24 hours after his cortisone shot, George Stahl was dead.

Doctors at John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek told Scully that her husband died from a burst blood vessel in his brain. Scully decided to donate Stahl's organs. Doctors were in for a shock:

CHRONICLE INVESTIGATION / Who's Mixing Your Drugs? / Bad medicine: Pharmacy mix-ups a recipe for misery / Some drugstores operate with very little oversight

In 2005 I was hit with a similar infection - I suspected foul play - in 2011 I brought this to the attention of Chief of Police of Walnut Creek - Chief Bryden - five weeks later the man in the police report handed over was killed.  Makes perfect sense to me.
