What does high ESR and Transferrin saturation mean in blood test?

High ESR and Transferrin saturation can be caused by numerous problems.

High levels of ESR and Transferrin saturation in the blood indicate a variety of health problems. If your blood ESR level is between 0 mm/hr to 14 mm/hr and the Transferrin saturation level is between 13 mm/hr to 45 %, then your body does not have any underlying health problems. But if ESR and Transferrin saturation levels exceed these levels, you should see a doctor immediately.
