Can the CRP test diagnose specific diseases?
While the CRP test is an important diagnostic tool, it does not diagnose specific diseases. Instead, it indicates the presence of inflammation in the body. Doctors often use CRP test results in conjunction with other tests and clinical assessments to diagnose specific conditions.
Should I inform the phlebotomist about my current medications before taking the CRP test?
Yes, it's advisable to inform the phlebotomist or your healthcare provider about any medications you're currently taking, as some drugs can affect CRP levels. This includes anti-inflammatory medications, steroids, and certain pain relievers.
How is the CRP test different from the ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test?
Both the CRP and ESR tests measure inflammation levels in the body, but they do so in different ways. CRP is a protein that increases rapidly in response to inflammation, providing a more immediate indication of changes in the inflammatory status. ESR measures how quickly red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube, which can be influenced by a range of factors and changes more slowly. Hence, CRP is often preferred for its specificity and rapid response to inflammatory changes.
