CRP-c reactive protein, a little hiccup that I noticed on my hospital records, but was told "All your levels were off because of the stroke." They didn't bother to do another test to see if it was normal. Now, 11 months later, a medical doctor who has gone into alternative medicine asks me if I know what CRP, or c reactive (I finish the phrase for him) protein is? I go on to tell him about my initial thought, and that my level was 19 compared to .2 or less in normal, healthy people. God bless the doctors who saved my life, but let's also hear it for the doctor who may have found a symptom. Now we'll wait and see about the treatment.
