[QUOTE="Luna21, post: 395194"] I have Psoriatic arthritis, which is similar in many ways to Rheumatoid arthritis so, due to the medications I have to take to keep the worst of the symptoms under control, I have to get blood tests done every month and one of those is the CRP test. Since being diagnosed as diabetic Type 2, I haven't noticed any difference in my CRP levels at all. Perhaps there is something else going on in your body which is causing the higher inflammation markers. Although yours are higher than the norm, they are not horrifically high. Try having them in the high 150's! :***: Some people can have a marginally higher CRP which is normal for them though outwith the guidelines, and your doc should perhaps be doing other tests or a repeat CRP one, as even a cold can make it rise a bit.
