Possibly: An elevated high-sensitivity CRP has been shown to be a risk factor for coronary disease. In the jupiter tiral, people with normal LDL cholesterol and high CRP were benefitted from taking a statin. Note that many other conditions (infection, arthritis) can raise the crp, so it is only useful if you are otherwise well. Must discuss with your doctor.
