Ankylosing spondylitis - CRP reduction

2022-10-20 14:28:19
Suffering from joint pain since 2011. Tried multiple medications, but no improvement. Was better between 2017-2018 when under biological injections. But pain came back after stopping. For last 2 years my CRP was in range of 75-80. But this year CRP is down to 40 without any medication. What does this mean?
