A member asked:
My mother crp and dimer level increases to 1000 and 20 respectively post covid. is this a sign of worry? how can we control it. she always has a fever of 99-100 as of now, is this due to high values of crp and dimer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both CRP and D-dimer are markers in the blood for acute inflammation - not specific for COVID. Can be ANY source of acute or chronic inflammation. Elevation of either (or both) in the context of coronavirus infection indicates your mother is still “fighting” the virus. Forget the markers - concentrate on how she feels
