I have been diagnosed with esophagitis and have been taking Dexilant. That condition is much better. However, during my regular physical, my C Reactive Protein was 8.5. this alarmed me since I have been having migraines way too often. My blood pressure and cholesterol are OK, so I wondered if the inflammation of the esophagus could have affected the CRP #? Thanks!
Dear Friend, greetings from Chat Doctor. I understand your concern . Yes C reactive protein is a non-specific protein which will be elevated in any non-specific inflammatory conditions . Please don't worry about that at this stage continue your treatment for esophagitis . It will be normal after inflammation subsides . Thank you and do contact us for more queries .
