Sed Rate

[averyevansmom]

I tried earlier to post but I must have lost the message. Oh, well. My question was if anyone knew if there was a correlation to a high sed rate (40) to celiac. My three year old's was that high. Plus his personality has been so erratice the past month or so. So irritable, indecisive, crabby, then lovable, snugglym clingy, needy. It's horrible to see hime this way. Almost the whole second year of his life he was almost the perfect happy child. Always smiling, laughing, happy, rarely cried. Now he has fits, hits himself, says he doesn't want us, then in the nest breath, wants us. It's frustrating and confusing. Luckily for him Daddy, Big Sissy and Mommy are patient and understanding that he doesn't feel well. Do these children occassionally complain that their belly hurts? It hurts me so to see him suffer. My poor little man.

Thanks so much

I am sorry, I do not know what a "sed rate" is?

It's a blood test that checks for inflammation somewhere in the body. Nowhere specific. It's especially useful for people with other auto immune diseases, ie: arthritis, lupus,etc.

Hi,

a high sedimentation rate can caused by an infection,or any other thing that makes the immune system working hard,do you know about his white and red blood cells?

Hi, both his white blood and red blood cells were within range, however, on another page, there was another rbc marked abnormal with Micro 2+ and Hypo 1+. I have no idea what these are.
