Elevated Hs-Crp

[Palermitano]

Just had some lab work, a bit concerned about Hs-Crp

Cholesterol 161 /125-200
HDL 46 / > or =40
Triglycerides 71 /<150
LDL-Cholesterol 101 / <130
Chol/Hdlc Ratio 3.5 /<5


Hs-Crp 3.6 / should be 2 or less, Dr said, "not to worry, I don't think its clinically important".

Any Opinions?
Thank you in advance.
