I'm really worried because my HSCRP levels are high, and I'm taking vaso. What kind of risks should I be aware of, and who should I talk to about this?

High levels of hs-CRP (C-reactive protein) indicate inflammation in the body, which can be a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke. Vaso refers to vasculitis, which is inflammation of the blood vessels. It is important to manage these conditions to reduce the risk of complications. You should consult with a Rheumatologist for the vasculitis and a Cardiologist for the high hs-CRP levels. The Rheumatologist may prescribe medications such as Prednisone for vasculitis, while the Cardiologist may recommend medications like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol and reduce inflammation in the blood vessels.

I'm really worried because I've been experiencing shortness of breath almost every day for the past year. It's like I can't breathe deeply and feels like there's air trapped in my chest. It's happening even when I'm just resting with no apparent triggers. I also sometimes feel dizzy and have trouble focusing. I've noticed that this used to only happen occasionally, like during exercise or when the weather was bad, but now it's nearly constant. I'm currently taking verapamil three times a day to manage my tachycardia and hypertension. Could any of this be related, or what might be causing these feelings?

Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.
