I agree with pabb....

16 for a c-reactive protein is really high.
White cells too.

I've always had an elevated alkaline phos. reading. (this is due to my arthritis, it was assumed) If alkaline phos is only elevated and not other liver parameters, bone/calcium metabolism is inferred.

I would wonder if you have an infection somewhere...festering away. Something in the gums/teeth? Ear infection, bladder infection?
