A member asked:

What to do if i have high levels of total complement (ch50) and c-reactive protein. what does that mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to determine: cause of elevation. Both of these are markers of inflammation. You should see your doctor to determine what may be causing inflammation. It does not have to be an infection. It is not feasible to be more helpful in this forum.
