Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some inflammatory disease.  Inflammation leads to high ESR and CRP. You may have some autoimmune disorder.  You should go for complete ANA profile.  Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
