your blood sugar levels elevation is unrelated to the drugs you're using. None of them causes hyperglycemia. I can't comment on your CRP levels without the clinical context (your symptoms and vital signs). You should stick to your doctor's advice. Your doctor is the most appropriate person to decide treatment changes. Since you're pain-free, it seems that the drugs are helping you. Regarding your CRP levels, I'll be glad to comment more provided that you'll tell me more details about your symptoms and whether you have a fever or not. The CRP levels may fluctuate depending on how you're doing. During flares, you may see the levels rising. Infections may be causing the elevation as well.
I hope I've answered your question. Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Kind Regards, Dr Panagiotis Zografakis Internal Medicine Specialist
