Could you help me out with finding someone in Delhi who can properly administer the pencompenidure 1.2M unit injection that I've been getting every 21 days? I've been doing this for the past 10 years, but since moving here last year, it's been tough to find a good person for the job. The last physician I went to didn't quite do it right. I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any recommendations.

I'm really concerned because my ESR is at 80mm after the first hour, as per the report, and for the last two months, I've been dealing with frequent fevers. I had viral fever, then got typhoid twice, and recently another fever hit me. My doctor suggested some tests, and most came back fine, except for an abdominal scan that showed my liver has increased in size and my ESR is high. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Recurring swollen lymph nodes can be frustrating. _Possible causes:_ 1. _Recurring infections_: Frequent colds or sinus infections might cause the lymph node to swell. 2. _Dental issues_: Tooth abscesses, gum disease, or other dental problems can cause lymph node swelling. 3. _Allergies or sensitivities_: Seasonal allergies or sensitivities to certain foods or substances might contribute to the swelling. _Consider the following:_ 1. _Dental checkup_: Schedule a dental appointment to rule out any underlying dental issues. 2. _Allergy testing_: If you suspect allergies, consider consulting an allergist for testing. 3. _Imaging tests_: Your doctor might recommend imaging tests (e.g., ultrasound or CT scan) to evaluate the lymph node. 4. _Monitor and track_: Keep a record of when the swelling occurs, any potential triggers, and how long it lasts.

Can you explain what the ESR test involves? My mom has diabetes, and I've been told she's having issues with her ESR levels. I'm hoping to understand more about what this means for her health.
