Possibly: Your CRP is mildly increased which can be due to increased inflammation cause by normal processing of excess fat in the circulation but it's really non-specific. CRP is not that useful as a test in of itself but with increased cholesterol levels, it might show that you are at an increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
