Q & A: Elevated CRP - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

Measuring CRP (C reactive protein) is a standard inflammation test. However, please don't rely on it alone; it could give a false-positive result in some situations. I recommend combining the CRP test with Lp-PLA2, myeloperoxidase, and microalbumin creatinine ratio.
