High CRP value
I have chronic pain in jaw and neck for 3 years now. I have seen doctors and dentists. No relief and no proper diagnosis yet. They did a blood work for CRP and ESR. It was 15 last December. (. Normal range 0-10). Dr sent me to Rheumatologist to check further. He did check my CRP every 3 months since then. It's still high and the recent value was 23. Dr told me to take turmeric supplements for this. CRP is not reducing at all. I gained weight in the last few months. My hba1c value becomes high too in the last blood work. I never had high blood sugar before. It's 6.5%. What to do for high CRP values? Will it go down? I also took birth control pills for a month given by Dr. Is that affects the CRP value? How to reduce the CRP value? It's high for an year now. I take metformin for this high sugar value and losartan for high normal BP. My BP is always between 120-125/80-95. So the Dr told me to take losartan. Is high CRP anything serious? I have constant pain in the jaw and neck.
