! u7 c# V. j0 h. \癌晚期往往伴随的炎症,很多医生对晚期患者C反应蛋白居高不下视而不见,他们认为这是肿瘤进展,C反应蛋白高与不高没有任何关系,所以很少有医生主动为晚期病人抗感染治疗,他们的建议一般就是“肿瘤进展,必须化疗..........或采取其他治疗”。 5 y5 P$ g1 r Y B相对感染来说,癌可以成是一种慢性病,不做任何治疗,生存期至少有几个月,甚至半年、一年,可是一旦严重感染,这个生存期要短很多。1 ^$ z' Q: L$ C+ F. a1 Q/ A, _! c
同样,肿瘤和感染会相互促进的,肿瘤进展伴随着感染,感染同时也会影响靶向药有效性,但是,感染可以通过强力的抗生素治愈,可是肿瘤不能。1 e7 e& b+ r/ f( h
这种情况下,对我们最有利的做法就是首先要抗感染治疗,其次是用上有效的靶向药。

High levels of CRP are caused by infections and many long-term diseases. But a CRP test cannot show where the inflammation is located or what is causing it. Other tests are needed to find the cause and location of the inflammation.1 B. N+ Y. F! d- |$ t l: l7 q$ X7 ~: Q

Check for infection after surgery. CRP levels normally rise within 2 to 6 hours of surgery and then go down by the third day after surgery. If CRP levels stay elevated 3 days after surgery, an infection may be present.
