I'm a 50-year-old woman and recently had a blood check-up done. My ESR came back at 60mm, but everything else like renal function, urine routine, and blood tests are normal, and I don't have any other health issues. I'm curious about what could be causing the high ESR. Can you help me understand why it might be elevated?
ESR, or erythrocyte sedimentation rate, is a non-specific marker of inflammation in the body. In your case, since other parameters like renal function, urine routine, and blood counts are normal, a high ESR could be due to various reasons such as infection, inflammation, autoimmune disorders, or certain cancers. Since you have no other health problems or illnesses, it would be advisable to further investigate the underlying cause of the high ESR. I would recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and possibly additional tests to determine the exact cause of the elevated ESR. Treatment would depend on the underlying condition identified.
