Tap Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 My pain dr wants me to have a sed rate test. I had a cortisone shot last week in my lower back and I don't know if I should bother with the sed rate test so close to a cortisone shot. Does anyone know if it will affect it or not? If so, any idea on how long I should wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Yes, it does I believe since the point of cortisone is to reduce your immunity and inflammation and those are the things the sed test tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
