Bloodwork Changes - Input Appreciated

[MyteeJ]

I was going through my blood work yesterday and found a disturbing change in the C-Reactive Protein, Cardiac levels since starting my current protocol.

Baseline:
C-Reactive Protein, Cardiac - 0.45 Range 0.00 - 3.00

5 Week Bloodwork
C-Reactive Protein, Cardiac - 3.14 Range 0.00 - 3.00

Diet was cleaned up to almost "prefect", and exercise (cardio/lifting) increased since starting protocol. My situation is unusual since I started protocol via online clinic and then saw a TRT Dr for ongoing treatment.

Any thoughts or input are appreciated.

I forgot to add to information above, I had an ekg that dr said was perfect and chest x-ray that showed no abnormalities.

I wouldn't worry about it unless it consistently tests at that level. It's an inflamation marker and your body could just have been fighting something off at the time. Don't let the "cardiac" scare you to much at this point. Many other factors would be off as well if that was an issue in your health IMO. An astute doc would put two and two together.

Thank you for your input kel.

The doc that ran that BW wasn't too concerned but said that he wanted to keep an eye on it.

The cardiac and notation in the BW did freak me out but getting feedback and research has calmed me down.

Growth Hormone Optimization will lower it

Its actually an inflammation marker that can be brought about by infection or other things, so kel is partly right

If it is continually high then it is something to worry about. If not then you'll be ok.

Ironic that it spiked after starting GH......hopefully I was just fighting something that week.

How much are you taking? anything over 1.5IU can make that go in a negative direction.

Correct! Thanks for pointing that out. I typed the wrong "in" word! Edited!

1.5 IU 5 on 2 off.

I am also taking Sermorelin.
