Elevated levels can indicate anything from arthritis to some thing more serious. It sounds like you have some test results pending. Once your physician diagnoses the condition, treatment should reduce your sed rate back to normal. Have you ever tried using MSM? It may prove to be beneficial for reducing your pain levels and reducing inflammation in various areas of the body.

It's been high for around 3 years. C-Reactive Protein is always normal. I am now seeing a doctor who is doing all kinds of "esoteric" blood tests. Polymyalgia Rheumatica has not been confirmed. I have had fibromyalgia (and somatic dysfunction) for decades, but it is rather latent as I have become acclimated to it. I am a vegan, and in otherwise very good health.rnrnMaybe you have some insight into why my sed rate is abnormal. Thanks in advance. My sed rate is now 124. It’s been high for around 3 years.
