I am a 20 year old boy working in a chemical factory. I have been experiencing fever for the past month. After consulting a doctor, I was advised to undergo a C reactive protein test, and the report is attached. We are unsure about the significance of the high CRP value and would like your help in understanding the report.

High CRP means inflammation or infection. Persistent fever for more than 1 week needs detailed evaluation. It could be infection, inflammation, or exposure related. Follow up urgently.

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a ESR Test (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) Test

My RT PCR report is negative and I have completed 24 days in self isolation. Today I underwent a CRP test which shows Q 3.15 (0 to 6). I want to know the CRP measuring unit is mg/L, but my report shows 3.15 without a unit. Please tell me if this is a valid CRP report or not?

I am suffering from high grade fever of 104 degrees F with sore throat and nasal congestion. Blood tests for dengue and malaria are negative, and the urine test report is normal. My CRP level is 32. I received the second dose of Covishield one week ago. What could be the cause of the elevated CRP level? I am already taking medication for high cholesterol and hypertension.
