Autoimmune something: Struck with extreme fatigue

I am the opposite, I have a very high crp but low sed rate. I am on levothryoxine for the Hashimoto and with the history of multiple cancers will not use biologicals. I did not tolerate methotrexate and am having issues with the new medication Arava. Plaquenil and steroids have proven to be the best so far but because of the failing kidneys they wean me off, try something new then put me back on it. At this point I am willing to chance dialysis and have a quality of life then feeling like crap all the time and no quality of life. At least dialysis can be done at night in your home while you are sleeping.

Did your Dr ever explain the high CRP but low sed rate? I forgot to ask mine and I haven't been to see him since the COVID struck. I'm also on levothyroxine for Hashimoto's. I guess I'll go on methotrexate after we all can get vaccinated for COVID but I am trying CBD and about a teaspoon of TCH tincture alternating every day. I will ask for another sed rate once I'm back in the system. My Dr is part of a large hospital and I haven't wanted to go around there. I am very leery of biologics although my next-door neighbor is on one and seems to feel OK. I may question her further.
Good luck with your kidneys!
