Do you have a reference on the CRP values being changed? I haven't seen anything saying below 8 is high.

I looked it up again and as of 7/10/2023, this is the information on the
govt site:

*Interpretation of CRP levels:*

Less than 0.3 mg/dL: Normal (level seen in most healthy adults).

0.3 to 1.0 mg/dL: Normal or minor elevation (can be seen in obesity,
pregnancy, depression, diabetes, common cold, gingivitis, periodontitis,
sedentary lifestyle, cigarette smoking, and genetic polymorphisms).

1.0 to 10.0 mg/dL: Moderate elevation (Systemic inflammation such as RA,
SLE, or other autoimmune diseases, malignancies, myocardial infarction,
pancreatitis, bronchitis).

More than 10.0 mg/dL: Marked elevation (Acute bacterial infections, viral
infections, systemic vasculitis, major trauma).

More than 50.0 mg/dL: Severe elevation (Acute bacterial infections).
