Serum creatinine serves as a crucial marker for evaluating kidney damage. Generally, the higher the blood creatinine level, the more significant the kidney impairment. For a healthy adult, the typical blood creatinine level is around 133. If this level surpasses 133, it indicates potential kidney damage. A level exceeding 450 suggests renal failure, while a value over 700 typically indicates uremia.
Today at noon, Mr. Young’s blood test revealed a shocking blood creatinine level of over 1,500! This raises the urgent question: is he truly improving or even healed? The blood creatinine level remains the most vital reference point for assessment.
Shortly thereafter, a nurse rushed in.
Upon witnessing Mr. Young’s sudden burst of energy, the nurse was taken aback. It took her a moment to gather herself after Dr. Kelso’s prompt, and she quickly proceeded to collect a blood sample from Mr. Young. The sample was then expedited to theboratory, with results expected in about 20 minutes.
While they awaited the results, Mr. Young, feeling a sudden pang of hunger, turned to his wife Sydney and asked, “Wife, do you happen to have any food? I’m feeling really hungry, and my stomach is growling.”<fnc1ff> The rightful source is find{n}ovel</fnc1ff><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Sydney, wiping her tears, replied with a choked voice, “You’ve been in aa these past few days, and your stomach is likely empty. The doctor mentioned that even nasal feeding isn’t suitable for you, so you’ve been relying solely on nutrient infusions. If you’re craving something to eat…”
Doris Young quickly chimed in, “Dad, what would you like to eat? I can go get it for you right now!”
She then turned to Dr. Kelso, asking, “Dr. Kelso, is there anything my dad should avoid eating at this stage?” Dr. Kelso replied, “Your dad hasn’t eaten anything for several days, and his body is in need of nutrients. It’s important to replenish his energy and calories, but he should avoid spicy foods.”
Mr. Young eagerly interjected, “Dr. Kelso, can I have some roast duck buns? A bowl of duck would be fantastic.”
If the people of Aurous Hill were to list their top ten favorite foods, roast duck buns would undoubtedly make the cut.
Roast duck buns are akin to Eastcliff roast duck, but instead of being served whole, the duck is used as a filling encased in buns.
As a native of Aurous Hill, Mr. Young couldn’t help but think of this dish after several days without food.
Dr. Kelso nodded with a smile, “That sounds fine, but remember, no chili peppers on the duck.”
Doris Young quickly responded, “I’ll go get it!”
Charlie, who had been watching, offered, “Ms. Young, I’lle with you.”
Just as they were about to leave, Doris Young’s mother, Sydney, interjected, “Oh, Doris, Mr. Wade is a valued guest and has been a tremendous support to our family. You shouldn’t have him run around with you for errands. There’s a restaurant right across the street. You can get the food quickly while Mr. Wade stays here to talk with your dad.”
Doris felt a wave of anxiety wash over her at this moment. She knew her mother all too well. Over the past two years, her mother had be increasingly concerned about her finding a partner, especially with Doris now at the age of twenty-eight and still single.
In the eyes of older generations, women over twenty-five should be prioritizing marriage over career and education. However, Doris had been wholeheartedly dedicated to her work. The rapid growth of the Emgrand Group wasrgely attributed to her efforts, leaving her little time for personal rtionships. This focus on her career made her parents even more anxious about her single status.
