Hello Dear
I evaluated your concern in depth .
@ ESR gets raised in many clinical conditions one of which is inflammatory
response of the body due to various infections
@ As she is suffering from typhoid fever, it is likely that her ESR will remain
high still for some time period, it will gradually settle down once the
systemic issue is getting fixed with proper care .
@ So don`t get panic, relax, take good care of her as per doctor`s advise
for diet & medications .
Hope this will definitely help you .
Feel free to ask any further doubt in future anytime .
Thanks for using Health care magic .
Regards .
