Crp is an inflammatory marker, it will be eleveated even in minor infections, however recently its raised levels have been correlated with increased cardiovascular risk. Ecosprin is a blood thinner and atorvastatin is for reducing raised lipids. Kindly mention the dose of atorvastatin you are on 10 or 20.

You have received a short stent. If one year is over, generally better to reduce antiplatelet medicines from 2 to one.
