CRP and ESR are inflammation markers. Your CRP is good and slightly raised ESR isn't a problem.

Thanks for the links Clutter. I'm having regular pain since August and the Doctor did say it was normal pain but sometimes the pain is just too severe and I can"t pick anything up when its happening. Can anyone suggest any supplements I may use to see if they reduce the flare ups please..
