I'm really worried about my friend who just donated a kidney. She's planning to get married soon, and I'm curious if this donation could cause any health issues for her later in life. Is there anything specific she should be aware of or prepared for as she moves forward?

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He's been on dialysis for 10 years and was recently admitted to the hospital with a really bad lung infection. They tried some antibiotics like merotac and mucinac but those didnt seem to work. Then they sent his sputum culture to Hinduja hospital, and once they figured out the bacteria, they switched up his treatment. He was on Mikacin and Zonamax for a bit, and then they put him on Altitpod CV 200. He's doing a bit better now but his cough hasn't improved at all, and he still needs oxygen when he feels tired after walking a bit at home. I'm just wondering if you think the treatment he's getting is right and if there's anything we can do to help with his cough. Any advice you could offer would be great.
Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin duo 625mg thrice daily, for 5 days, tab pan d,orally once daily for 14 days ,syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 14 days.Also avoid spicy and hot items is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit concerned about my health lately as my recent blood tests showed a creatinine level of 1.19 and uric acid at 7.4. I'm not sure if these levels are worrisome. Could you please let me know what precautions I should take and where I should get these checked out?
Creatinine level of 1.19 and uric acid level of 7.4 are slightly above the normal range. To help lower your uric acid levels, you can take precautions such as avoiding purine-rich foods like organ meats, anchovies, and alcohol. Additionally, staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy weight can also help. For your creatinine level, it is important to stay hydrated and avoid excessive intake of protein. You can get these levels checked at a diagnostic center or a laboratory.

I was diagnosed with CKD last month and my creatinine was at 4.1. My doctor did a biopsy and mentioned that 820 glomeruli showed shrinking because of IgA. There's no swelling on my face or feet but I'm passing protein in my urine, no blood though. My blood pressure has been around 12585. I'm looking for a second opinion because I've been on medication for the past week but my creatinine has gone up to 7. My doctor still advises continuing with Omnacortil 40 and Sevcar. Is this the right approach, or should I be concerned about the increase in creatinine levels? Would really appreciate some guidance.
-It sounds like you've been diagnosed with CKD, with a creatinine level of 4.1 initially, which has risen to 7 despite starting treatment. The biopsy showed IgA-related damage, and you're on Omnacortil and Sevcar. Since your doctor recommends continuing t
