Dej,
Maybe you are thinking of the ESR test, not the C-Reactive Protein test. The ESR blood test, stands for erythrocyte sedimentation rate. It is a test that indirectly measures how much inflammation is in the body. That level can vary to the numbers you quoted.

I have had 7, and at one point 78 ESR, then 29 another time, all in the past.

My CRP was normal, the two times I was tested for it, again in the past.

Just a thought.
