What Is Elevated CPR Level Suggestive Of?

I am 50 years old. I am a female... 5 3 inches, 135 lbs. I was diagnosed with Sjögren s syndrome 3 years ago. I get bloodwork done regularly by my rheumatologist to make sure I m okay. Today, howere my CPR level was 20. It is supposed to be under 1. What does this mean and what should I do? Thank you very much! Sandra Willet

Good evening.Well CRP can be high in infections or some inflammation going on..One needs to look for fever or any urinary infection. If you dont have any symptoms you can wait and repeat it again after a weeks time to see the report is not wrong or so..
