A member asked:
Is a sed rate of 30 high? what does this mean? a cause of my chronic hives? also my rdw was high...at a 18.8
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sed rate: A sed rate of 30 is not too high, normal is up to around 20. It is a lab doctors use to follow inflammation in the body, it may be high due to your hives, or arthritis, or infection, or another auto immune disease. You do not treat a see rate, rather you look for some cause of inflammation in the body that may be triggering it to be elevated.
