SED rate reality

What is the likelihood of my SED rate ever getting closer to normal? I’ve had in the 40s-50s for the last few years. I’m not sure if I’m wasting my time hoping for normal. My CRP is well under control. Why can’t I get my SED rate there?

  1. It must be frustrating to not see any reduction in your SED rate! If you haven't already, I suggest discussing this with you doctor. I'm hopeful that the community will respond with their experiences, in the meantime I found this article which may be helpful: https://psoriatic-arthritis.com/clinical/blood-tests-sed-rate .
