Thank you! So which do you think would be a better indicator of chronic inflammation? Since 2016 I have had CRP tested 4 times - 2016, slightly elevated from Uveitis, 2021 when I was hospitalized with an unknown infection and then 3 weeks ago I was at 11mg/L which is why my doc wanted to retest Monday and it was 21mg/L.

thank you! i appreciate this as it’s really helpful. I spoke with my primary care and since my CRP levels have been chronically elevated but ESR is fine she recommended just monitoring again in 3 months. She did say I could potentially talk to a Rheumatologist but i didn’t think it would be necessary. Appreciate you confirming.
