I was diagnosed with COVID about 16 days ago and spent 3 days in the hospital. They sent me home once my CRP level was below 2. Now, 10 days later, my CRP is at 4.4. I'm taking Medrol 16 mg and Ecosprin 150 mg, but its gone up. Should I be concerned about this increase?

What can I do to bring it down since I can't get any medicine right now? It's the middle of the night, and I need some sleep. I've already tried breathing exercises. Do you have any other advice?

If you are unable to get medicine right now, you can try taking over-the-counter acetaminophen (Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg to help reduce any pain or fever that may be keeping you awake. Additionally, you can try using a cold compress on your forehead to help bring down your temperature and promote relaxation. Make sure to stay hydrated and maintain a comfortable sleep environment. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention as soon as possible.

I'm a bit puzzled about something. My Alkaline phosphatase level came back at 135. I've never had alcohol and I'm not experiencing any digestive or stomach problems. Is this level something I should be concerned about, or is it considered normal?

In summary, 135 IUL is not necessarily abnormal, but it's worth monitoring in consultation with your healthcare provider if you have any other symptoms or health concerns
