High ESR, normal CRP and anaemia

My husband had high ESR (86) and anaemia for the past 4 months. He is 83 and has got some cough, dysphagia, and recently TIA. So far, ENT specialist could not find anything abnormal. Several more blood tests did not show anything more, just confirming anaemia and high ESR. I would like for him to have a CT or MRI body scan - how can I do privately? I am really worried and it does effect both of us.

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat, Liveplant.

    I'm sorry to hear that your husband had high ESR levels and anaemia for the past for months but I'm glad that his medical team didn't find anything abnormal so far.

    As for your question, we do have some information on our website about comparing NHS with private cancer treatment which you can find by clicking here.

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes to you both,
