Question 1

esr test came four levels up then normal?

Accepted Answer

ESR: This is a very non-specific measure of inflammation and if the cause of the initial elevation has been corrected (either spontaneously or through therapy) the values will return to normal.

Question 2

my esr levels came 19 which is above normal level what i have to do?

Accepted Answer

Lab data: The ESR is a completely non-specific measure of inflammation. Without knowing anything else it is meaningless. You need clinical correlation. If you have had removal of a breast lump that is sufficient to raise your ESR slightly.

Question 3

my esr level is 35 (normal is 10.00-20.00) elaborate.what causes it to rise? can it be controlled?

Accepted Answer

Complicated: The ESR is a marker of inflammation. Infections and auto-immune diseases are two things that can make it go up. It also tends to go up a little as we grow older. It's unfortunately not very specific for one thing and pretty sensitive. By itself, a minimally elevated ESR in someone your age is nothing to be worried about. Unless you're having symptoms of something i wouldn't lose too much sleep

Question 4

i recently had blood examination and had esr level at 23. man 33 years old. is that bad? i can't see the normal levels anywhere. please advise.thanks

Accepted Answer

Means nothing: I'm a pathologist and consider that normal. Sed rate is hard to do correctly in any case, and the results mean nothing whatever in isolation. If you had symptoms and I was worried about serious systemic inflammatory disease, I'd actually be reassured by this fairly low value.

Question 5

newly asthmatic and had another esr test which show very high again within 4 weeks since the last test which was back to normal levels will this mean i need to be tested every few months to check?

Accepted Answer

No more labs!: Absolutely not!  If you are otherwise feeling well, there is no need to recheck an ESR at any point.  Great news!

Question 6

i recently had to take a blood test as part of a life insurance medical.  all results came out normal, apart from esr (60), and this resulted in raising my premium.  i dont suffer from any medical condition, so why might my esr level be so high?

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Elevated ESR is a non-specific indicator of inflammation and that explains the insurance companies concern. You may visit this site for info:

Question 7

what are normal levels for esr & crp blood counts are?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the lab: Reference ranges can vary depending on the laboratory.

Question 8

if my esr and crp levels are normal, does that mean i dont have pmr?

Accepted Answer

: Probably yes. In any case, polymyalgia rheumatica is exceedingly rare at your age (shown as 19 years). Discuss with your doctor.

Question 9

i have uctd . my esr is normal but my crp is 5.3 i'm in a lot of pain but my levels are pretty good. can i still be in a flare?

Accepted Answer

High CRP look for in: When the CRP IS UP we look for infection as well as a flare. Discuss this with your physician

Question 10

is ca level  9.5 after 6 month after tt  without any ca supplement is normal or high? if high could it indicate to myeloma my goblin is 4.4 and esr 12

Accepted Answer

Ca not a test for : Myeloma.  Your calcium is normal but that does not say anything about myeloma. You are young to have myeloma, but if you have concerns your doctor can order blood tests. See this site for more info.
