High HS CRP
I recently did my routine blood tests and all reports are normal except my HS-CRP which is 5.5 mg/L. I am very worried because someone told me this may indicate serious heart problems. I also saw many videos online linking HS-CRP to heart disease which increased my anxiety.
Can you please tell me:
Is this level dangerous, what could be the reason if other reports are normal, and what should I do next to reduce it?
Thank you.
