I have been unwell for a month and passed out 3 wks ago. I got various bloods done but my ESR was 28 this morning. I have been having severe headaches and get dizzy. My doctor now has me on half beta blockers and i have seen a slight improvement. What does the ESR level 28 mean
Hi, there are many causes of high ESR. They are tuberculosis, infection, anemia, autoimmune disease, paraprotienemia, malignancies etc. But you may have only slightly high ESR may be due to some infection or inflammation. So don't worry.  It all come down. It's not a big deal. And your headache may BR due to your high blood pressure so take you antihypertensive accordingly. Thanks for using Chat Doctor.
