What Could Be The Reason For Having High Amount Of ESR And White Blood Cells?
hello Doctor. I am a female and 26 years of age and single and virgin. yesterday I got my blood test where ESR is 45 mm in 1st hour in westergreen test. and white blood cells 10.2 K/ micron liter. I also have done urine test where the sugar level is nill.I also here to mention that The level of blood sugar is 5.3m mole/L could you suggest me what what could be possible cause of high amount of ESR and White blood cells.
Welcome to H.C.M. High E.S.R ( greater than 28 in female) with high normal white blood cells count (Normal 4000 to 11000 mild variation may be possible) is indicating infection.No need to worry for it. Your blood sugar is normal.High E.S.R can be due to anemia because its common in female.Kindly mention your hemoglobin value also.I advise you to repeat your blood Test after one week because mild climate variation can lead to infection like upper respiratory tract infection as cough and cold.This can cause mild increase of E.S.R and increase W.B.C. You should ask for urine test if your E.S.R value and wbc value still persist after one week. Thanx for query.
