   Hi Vaithi,

   According to Wikipedia...

   ESR is The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), also called a sedimentation rate or Biernacki Reaction, is the rate at which red blood cells sediment (Sink to the bottom of the test tube) in a period of 1 hour..

   The mm/hr means millimeters per hour.

   To discuss your actual result you need to talk to your Doctor

   Best Wishes
