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.

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test or Take a ERYTHROCYTE SEDIMENTATION RATE (ESR) Test

I got my blood test done yesterday and the results show: Lipoprotein (a): 60.38 mg/dl hsCRP: 3.8 mg/L Total cholesterol: 245 mg/dl LDL: 175 mg/dl I am worried about these values. A day before the test I had cold and throat pain, could that have affected the results, especially hsCRP? I have attached the reports for your review.

Six days ago my sister developed a red spot in one eye. After two days, she started having fever in the evening only, with a maximum temperature of 99.6F, along with slight stomach upset. Her COVID test is negative. I have attached her blood report, done today. Her CRP is 0.38 and platelet count is 115. Please suggest whether this could be COVID or some other issue. Apart from the evening fever and slight stomach upset, her eye is perfectly fine and she has no other symptoms.

I am 29 years old and have had fever, cold, and cough for the past five days. I visited our family doctor, who prescribed medicines, but there has been no major improvement. She advised me to do some blood and urine tests. My report is as follows: SGPT: 26, CRP: 9, Hb: 13.6, TC: 5730, Neutrophils: 73, Lymphocytes: 20, ESR: 10, Platelets: 177,000, MP: Not Seen. Urine: pH 6.5, Protein: Nil, Sugar: Nil, BP: Nil, Pus: Nil, RBC: Nil. I also have a vitamin B12 deficiency, and the doctor prescribed Autrin 30 capsule. My RBC count is 4.65, showing mild macrocytosis. I want to know if my vitamin B12 deficiency is the reason I am experiencing cold, cough, and fever.
