Not a lot really, crp is pretty non specific and can be raised for many reasons, just means slight inflammation somewhere.

What are your symptoms may I ask? Yes, C-Reactive protein is an inflammation marker. If it’s highly elevated it could mean your heart is stressed out.

Smoking can increase the result. My GP told me this. Stress can as well.

Not what you're looking for?
