Missing something!: What happened when your daughter was hiking the Great Wall? Did she fall? What were her injuries, if so? Please ask your question again and clarify. Is she did fall, the CK can rise due to muscle injury and stay high for 3 days before decreasing. However, this is pretty high! What is being done for her now?

Level peaks at 3-4 d: Studies have shown than CK can rise for 3-4 days after muscle injury and then slowly recover from day 5-9. Your daughter's levels were elevated, but with severe injury to muscle, levels can rise to over 100,000.
