Raised ESR indicates chronic disease
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case with diligence.
Raised ESR indicates chronic disease which can be rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or seronegative arthritis.
RA test is positive in only 60 percent of RA patient.
When such patients come to our hospital I advise them blood test like, ACCP, complete blood count, HLA B27, uric acid.
Rheumatoid arthritis may involve small joints and early morning stiffness in joints, do you have such complain?
Ankylosing spondylitis typically involve spine and hips with other large joint also. There is reduced chest function in this disease. Stiffness in spine is increased do you have such stiffness in spine?
After feed back from you with this test we can help you further.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care.
