Welcome to H.C.M.
High E.S.R ( greater than 28 in female) with high normal white blood cells count (Normal 4000 to 11000 mild variation may be possible) is indicating infection.No need to worry for it.
Your blood sugar is normal.High E.S.R can be due to anemia because its common in female.Kindly mention your hemoglobin value also.I advise you to repeat your blood Test after one week because mild climate variation can lead to infection like upper respiratory tract infection as cough and cold.This can cause mild increase of E.S.R and increase W.B.C. You should ask for urine test if your E.S.R value and wbc value still persist after one week. Thanx for query.
