Raising levels of ESR
Hi, I am a 23 years old married woman and I was diagnosed with urticaria 4 yrs back and had been undergoing treatment. After a month I recovered from it but I used to get rashes occasionally. I did not take it very seriously because they were not itchy and disappeared within an hour or so. Last year I was diagnosed with a viral fever which resulted in low platelets count. The fever came in intervals for 3 months only then the doctor wanted me to check my blood. He asked me to check my platelets after a week of treatment and the results came out well. My platelets count were increasing and reached the normal level. After recovering from that infection, I did not feel great. I felt tired most of the times and had joint pain too. So I went in and checked my ESR level. My ESR level kept on increasing every 2 months. At the begining it was 30 and then it increased to 58mm/Hr now. I am feeling so tired all the time and I have pain in both my wrists and in my feet and toes. What do i do next?
