Crp rising?


#1

ok latest blood tests show my crp went from 3.8 to 6.3
trigs down to 79
hdl up to 65
LDL-P - 2343
LDL-C - 202
HDL-P - 38
small LDL-P - 664
LDL Size 21.3
LP-IR - 36

Seems like i am doing better in other areas but why would crp climb ???
also lost 20 lbs since last crp 4 months ago

I think crp will go up for small infections, etc, so even though it’s an important marker, it’s hard to trust one particular reading. Were you fighting a cold or some kind of infection?

Could also be a wrong result. Labs make mistakes. Was in hospital all ready for gallbladder surgery had labs about an hour earlier and they come tell me my INR was off. That’s bloof clotting factor BTW. I’ve never had issues. Surgery gets postponed while they retest and the nurse literally cuts me with a razor and counts with a stopwatch to see how long I bleed. Then they say the lab screwed up and go ahead with the surgery. I’d get a retest in a few weeks if you can.
