43yo very obese female, normal cbc, esr, crp=8 went up a yr later to 17.9 weight went up too. worried about cancer, dr. says it's stress & weight. ?

C-reactive protein: Something must be causing a chronic elevation of the CRP. A full work-up and evaluation should be revealing, but this isn't always the case. It might be time for a second opinion too... There's nothing wrong with that. After all it is YOUR health. If weight is going up, I think less about cancer, and more about metabolic diseases. Hopefully you can get help.
