Hello, I am 1 28 yr old lasy ... I have suffered from cervical lymph node TB 3 yrs back...Was treated for 15 months continuously, got operated twice at neck...still after 3 yrs, I often feel very fatigued, tired, my ESR level is 42, Total leukocyte count is 10500. Is there any chance of relapse?
Hi, thanks for writing in to Chat Doctor.a leukocyte count ranging between 4000-11000 cells/CCMM is taken as normal.  Esr is not a diagnostic test. It is just a prognostic test hence just single elevated ESR level doesn't diagnose the disease. I would like to suggest kindly visit your physician as based on other symptoms like evening rise of temperature, loss of weight and other diagnostic tests specific for tb like polymerase chain reaction or lymph node biopsy along with thorough clinical examination are required for appropriate diagnosis.
