'Don't leave all the fun to the coroner' - Bwaah.

It's interesting that along with the guilt that House is experiencing there's also a fair amount of shame. It's an emotion that he usually has remarkably little of; he's hardly ever ashamed of his drives, motives or vices. The episode where it's revealed that he's kept his prison sentence from his mother shows that House has understood the difference between breaking rules in order to save lives and doing so in order to run rampant, thus risking lives.

If any good comes of this at all, it's that House is beginning to recognise how much he needs other people.
