What causes high ESR and low HbA1c?

High ESR and low HbA1c can be caused by many reasons.

If your ESR is in between 0.1 mm/hr and 14 mm/hr and your HbA1c is in between 4 % and 5.7 % then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for ESR and HbA1c respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.

Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease ESR levels include:

• Rheumatic fever
• Vascular disease
• Autoimmune diseases
• Inflammatory bowel disease
• Heart disease
