The CRP is a nonspecific test which is helpful in looking for potential future heart attacks. You said you were worried about clotting and coagulation disorders. You can see a hematologist about that at the University medical center.

Crp : CRP is a test for inflammation, not aware of it for a bleeding disorder. HS CRP is more specific to inflammation of the blood vessels and the plaque that may be present and if it is inflamed. More a marker for heart disease.
