My father's report says that his HS-CRP is above 9.95. Normal range is less than half 3. The Ayurvedic doctor has advised some medicine and a strict diet. I need an expert opinion to know whether he needs immediate cardiologist consult. The report has been attached.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
HS-CRP stabds for highly specific- c reactive protein.
It indicates a high risk for cardiac problems.
You should rather than wasting time on other forms of treatment, get him checked out by a cardiologist in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
