Posted on Thu, 23 Jul 2015

Question: what does blood work results that showed gross lipemia mean?

Brief Answer:
lipids are high in blood

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

Gross lipemia means the blood is fatty to naked eyes. We need to do a lipid profile to get the exact cholesterol and triglycerides levels. Then appropriate treatment can be given.

Iron and tibc seems normal, though we need to check the reference values of the lab from where it was done.

Hope this helps. I will be available for further follow up.

Regards

so probably my cholesterol and triglycerides are high? what causes this? my cholesterol a few months ago was normal....the only thing different was that had a missed miscarriage...please explain why my blood would be fatty

Brief Answer:
multiple factors may be involved

Detailed Answer:
First of all, this is to naked eyes, we should confirm it by lab tests.

If they are high, cause may be diet or lifestyle or even genetic.

Probably not related to miscarriage.
