A member asked:

Dx with fibromyalgia at age 29. sed rate very high - 50's and crp 4-5x normal range entire time. still fibro? if not, any ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You need to see: a rheumatologist or a family physician with good knowledge in autoimmune and connective tissue diseases. These results do not confirm anything, and they are at best nonspecific. However, given an apparent lack of diagnosed infection, they are markers of inflammation often correlated with autoimmune disorders as well as infection. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
