Dr Oz was talking about this blood test on his show.  I had it done, mine was 1.  Measures inflamation in the blood. 

less than 1 lowest risk
1-3 average
3 over highest risk

Never had it done; this is the first time.  I never heard about it till Dr. Oz.  but I have been eating very low fat, and high protein - so I am so happy with the results.  Have you had your surgery yet, if so it should come down.

Inflammation that clogged the arties.  More risk of heart trouble.
