Dr found noduler vasculitis by watching dark red spots. Then tell to test p ANCA and c ANCA. That tests are negative. But CRP is 4.13. No meeting with Dr after that test reports. What does that negative tests mean? And CRP test mean? I will meet Dr with that reports in next week.

Hello. Crp is c reactive protein...it is used as a tool to indicate acute or chronic infection, tissue necrosis,ischaemia,metabolic syndrome,smoking,post surgery, obesity etc...in your case it's done to check for inflammatory condition like vasculitis...c anca and p anca negative helps to rule out vasculitis.
