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?

I'm really worried about my mom's health right now. She's been dealing with a urine infection and her creatinine levels got up to 6.62. Theyve come down to 5 in the last three months after treatment, but I'm still concerned. Her blood sugar is stable, but her hemoglobin has dropped to 7.1. She's been having 200ml of double toned milk and 50gm of chicken every day, along with other foods. I'm wondering if beans and peas are safe for her to eat. Also, I've heard about chamomile teado you think it might help lower her creatinine levels?
