High sensitivity-CRP is at 23.4 mg/L (normal is below 4.8 mg/L). Should I be concerned about my heart? Or since I was also diagnosed with bilateral Achilles tendonitis and unilateral plantar fasciitis and possibly an additional soft tissue injury (still need to go for ultrasound) which causes pain and swelling in both feet--could these injuries be causing the increase? Also, other bloodwork (without taking any anti-inflammatory medications): ESR 36 mm/hr (normal 2-30), Nuclear ab (RF) 11 kUL (positive is indicated at above 28kUL), normal cholesterol ratio (HDL:LDL) and blood pressure (120/84).
