Hi, I had upper body from past 3 months and went to a doctor. He conducted tests and my Vitamin D Came out as 23.6 ng/ml and my CRP level was 94 mgm/l and ERS was 7 mm/1st hour. I developed severe neck pain and shoulder swelling 20 days back. I went to a orthopedic and he suggested tests again. My CRP is 157 and ESR is 90 and WBC count is 10000. Else my all report came as normal i.e. LFT, KFT, TYPHOID. In the neck X-ray report it was written straightening of cervical spine. Doctor suggested MRI. Report is due on Monday. My concern is my vitamin D level is low and My CRP, ESR and WBC are high and I have stiffness all over my body including pain and stiffness in neck. What could be the reason of CRP, ESR and WBC so high. Is it a sign of some serious issue like HIV or CANCER or its just due to the pain and stiffness. I am a mild smoker (3-4) in a day. I do night shifts and have a hectic schedule. I take a lot of stress and I am sleep deprived. I rarely drink alcohol.
