Diagnosed with PMR /GCA in February started out with 40 mg of prednisone now down to 10 mg. I have no symptoms at all, and actually feel great being pain-free. Six weeks ago I had my blood test. My CRP was 1.2. ( highest should be O.9) and SED rate 28 .(highest should be 20.)
So dr said, let’s wait six weeks and take the test again. Today was six weeks I had my test and my CRP came down to 0.7. !! 😆 But SED rate went to 29 !! Bummer !!! I have an appointment with the doctor on Friday and have no idea where we go from here.
Anybody have any thoughts on why the CRP came down but not the SED rate .. thanks for any input
