blood test
 
anyone have blood test for CRP (c-reactive protein) and ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate)? What were the results? Thanks.

My levels have always been normal. I believe an elevated ESR indicates excessive inflammation.

I had those both awhile back and the results were normal.It didnt help with the TOS. anti-inflamatories dont really help me either.

mine have always been really low even when my pain was at its worst

it does mean inflammation and its linked to cardiovascular disease

There is a possibility that this could be used as a simple urine test to confirm TOS.

Interesting, but not sure how this relates to TOS. I don't think it does.
