    High HS CRP Lab Value on Latest BloodWork

    Had labs done a few days ago. I had a few labs on the high end of normal , but the one that was clearly WAY too high was the HS CRP value of 5.9 mg/DL (and my estradiol which was 80)

    My LDL was the only cholesterol level out of whack at 109mg/DL which is only slightly elevated.

    Some authorities on the subject claim it is a reliable marker of increased chances of cardiovascular disease in otherwise healthy individuals, increasing chances of an event up to 4X.

    But according to this piece (and a few others), its a very non specific lab marker that really only matters in individuals at risk for heart disease. I had a calcium score CT 3 years ago and a cardiac ultrasound 2 years ago , both were completely normal.

    There are also things that could falsely raise this value, including gastritis, lack of sleep and strenous exercise.


    I will get this checked again in about 4 weeks and see if it subsists. If so, I am going to end my cycle and go back to a 250MG cruise.

    Anyone dealt with something like this before?

    Everyone's HDL goes down and LDL goes up on cycle.

    That High CRP is worrisome.
