Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I recently saw the dr. and had blood work done. I have had pain in my right leg and swelling. In having a Doppler done they found a mass in my groin, which they think is a lymph node. My CRP test was 38 mg., ESR test was 68 mg., and he also ordered a ALT which hasn t been determined yet with results. The first two tests are associated with inflammation, correct? This all began with strep throat. Is it possible this could have happen from that diagnosis?
