Would a confirmed h pylori infection as well as severe gastritis cause an elevated sed rate ? my sed rate is 47 , im a 40 year old female ?

Sed rate is non specific. many chronic conditions can cause that. Best to check with your MD who knows your health status.

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, any inflammation can elevate the sed rate. Wish you good health!
