What does the esr regarding multiple myeloma indicate?
Patient: I am 36, 5 feet 4 inches, 55 KG, male and was diognosed with Multiple Myeloma in February 2011. Before treatment my ESR was 92mm and after six cycles of Chemo therephy (with Valcade), it came down to 4mm. That was three months back. I got a ESR test done yesterday and it is 13 mm. Please advice. Doctor: Hello,  You should not worry at present.Your present ESR mark is under normal limit.If it continue to rise then you should be concerned.I will advice you to get it repeated after about 20 days.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr. Mukesh Tiwari
