A high ESR test result indicates that you may have:
- Arteritis
- Arthritis
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Kidney disease
- Infection
- Rheumatoid arthritis or autoimmune diseases
- Heart disease
- Certain cancers
- Systemic vasculitis
- Polymyalgia rheumatica
Whereas a low ESR test result shows that you may have health conditions such as:
- Blood disorders like polycythemia, sickle cell disease, leukocytosis
- Heart failure
- Certain kidney or liver problems
If ESR results are not normal, that doesn't always mean that there is a medical condition. Pregnancy, menstrual cycle, ageing, obesity, drinking alcohol regularly, and exercise all can affect an ESR result. So be sure to inform your doctor if you take any medicine or supplements.

Test Necessity
If you are suffering from any or some illnesses, such as fever, headache, joint/ muscle pain or stiffness, loss of appetite, unexplained weight gain/ loss, or anaemia, your doctor may suggest an ESR test. Your doctor may recommend another ESR test after a few months to see if your inflammation has cleared up with the medication.
