A high sed rate (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) indicates inflammation in the body but does not specifically diagnose fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and other symptoms, and its diagnosis is primarily based on clinical evaluation rather than lab tests. While some individuals with fibromyalgia may have elevated sed rates due to coexisting conditions, a normal sed rate does not rule out the disorder either. Therefore, a sed rate test is not a definitive indicator for fibromyalgia.
