Raised crp

5 replies

I had some abdominal pain for a few days... it was strange as I couldn't feel pain unless I pressed on the right side of my belly button.
Anyway it went after 2 days but I had been to the doctors and they did bloods. My crp came back as 71. I did realise I had my flu jab the day before they took bloods. Could this raise it this much?

That is quite high and suggests you have some infection somewhere.

Yes I know.... however I had the flu jab the day before I had the blood test.... so wondering if this could make it high?

Could've been a grumbling appendix I wouldn't wait to get that checked

Iv had an ultrasound. Pelvis and abdominal.
Couldn't see appendix but pain went after 2 days.... it only hurt and felt tender when pushed on it.

Have you had your gallbladder checked?

I’d probably ask to get bloods done again
