Hi
Please can anyone help?
I suffer with HA so seeing abnormal results can be triggering for me and I find myself finding answers from Google.
I am currently unwell and have been for 2 weeks. I swear it's been covid but every test is coming back negative. Anyway two weeks in and I still feel absolutely terrible. Full body aches, migraines, sinus pain, eye pain, breathless. I feel like im being crushed. It is really getting me down now trying to understand why my body cant get better. I was sent for bloods as I have been frequently unwell, picking up lots of infections and bugs over the last 12 to 18 months. And if I haven't been poorly I've felt completely exhausted and burnt out which has of course had a massive knock on effect to my mental health.
On my blood results my ESR is flagged red as abnormal. When I googled what the symptoms are, all what I am feeling and it's getting me down. But now I can feel my anxiety kicking in. I cant speak to the doctor until tomorrow but what can an abnormal ESR be an indicator of?
I just want to feel better. Part of me was shocked when everything else came back normal. But it has scared me seeing that I do have an abnormal reading which aligns with how I am feeling.
Thanks in advance
