ESR: This is a very non-specific indicator of an inflammatory process and is not likely to be caused by bacterial vaginosis. If you have no other symptoms would relax and ignore this lab result. Good luck.

Not with this,,,: Esr typically is associated with joint diseases like lupus and/or other inflammatory diseases like temporal arteritis, which occurs in a person'a mid 40s. It's also higher in women and although it's elevated, it's not too high and has practically nothing to do with your bacterial vaginitis which is more of an infectious issue and hopefully you've been treated. If not, see your dr.. Good luck.
