Does anyone know what this means please? I had a blood test last week and they showed a 19 on the inflammation but a month before they were 29? Obviously they have gone down since starting sulfasalazine but is 0 normal? Thanks

HI tamnwill,
Thats good news your CRP ( C- Reactive Protein) is comming down and looks like the sulpha is working for you , Mine was 26 the last blood test which is very good for me as it was 70 . I think normal range is 5 in a healthy person . Do a search on CRP theres loads of information on the net
Take Care

Hi Tamnwill,
Glad you've been answered because I couldn't tell you what your levels mean but it does sound positive.
I was wondering where you'd gone and how you were doing after you did all the estrogen research and were clearing your cupboards of toxins - is the drop in your CRP levels down to your drugs or your changed diet/lifestyle - do you know and has it been worth the drastic changes you've made :?: :?

Ordinary people would be 0 to 5 for ESR or CRP. If you have RA or similar then this will be slightly raised. Up to 20 could still be OK, any higher then contact your doc/rheumy. Next visit, ask.
Mine is usually between 10 and 20 for both. But, ESR goes to 50+ if I have a cold or an RA flareup.
