If an ESR is abnormally high, it means that the red blood cells fell faster than expected. This usually happens when the RBCs have more protein within them, which causes them to stick together. Many conditions can cause an ESR to become elevated.

The distance red blood cells travel in one hour in a sample of blood as they settle to the bottom of a test tube. The sedimentation rate is increased in inflammation, infection, cancer, rheumatic diseases, and diseases of the blood and bone marrow. Also called erythrocyte sedimentation rate and sedimentation rate.
Some of the conditions that cause a significantly high ESR level include:Autoimmune conditions (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, etc.)Kidney and/or thyroid diseases.Infections.Tissue injury and/or trauma.Anaemia.Some classes of cancer.

ESR levels higher than 100 mm/hr could suggest a serious disease, such as infection, heart disease, or cancer [58, 5, 3, 6]. ESR levels higher than normal may predict cancer or cancer progression, like metastasis [59, 60, 61, 62, 63].
CASE SUMMARY. We here report that the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) increased in a confirmed COVID patient. The high level of ESR sustained for a long time even after the patient recovered from COVID-19, while all results related to tumor, tuberculosis, rheumatic diseases, anemia, etc.
In oncology, a high ESR has been found to correlate with overall poor prognosis for various types of cancer, including Hodgkin's disease, gastric carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, breast cancer, colorectal cancer and prostate cancer.
Of the patients with nonmalignant disease, 9.6 percent had an ESR of less than 10 mm/hr and 25.6 percent a rate of less than 20 mm/hr. Thus, in about a quarter of the patients, the ESR was below the top normal level for the elderly. Moreover, the ESR may be as high as 35--40 mm/hr in healthy aged persons.
