The test for inflammatory number is. Serum Proteins (C Reactive protein)which is a protein produced by the liver when there is an abnormal amount of inflammation in the body. The normal range 1.1 to < 5.0. My first test was 23 , in 1 month I was to a < 3 . Now after 1 and 3/4 years i am @ 1 my medication of prednisone 2.5 mg most of the time to 5 mg when I get a flair up for 7 days then back down to 2.5 mg
