The key question is how do you feel? If you're feeling well, an elevated pr3 may be just a small concern. Many of us have a number or two that's a little abnormal. If it's stable over time and you feel good, it's probably ok. If you start to feel worse, other labs will be unfavorably abnormal too.
My doc hasn't ordered ANCA or pr3 labs in five years. My regular labs (every other month) are a CBC, C-RP, CMP, sedimentation rate, and urinalysis. While I have a couple numbers that are slightly abnormal, I feel fine and live my pre-wegs life.
Hope this is helpful...
