I have low iron, low uric acid, low reticulocytes, low triglycerides, but everything else is normal? hgb 11.9, all other blood tests within normal range ( bilirubin sometimes over, all the rest are constants) and erythrocytes in the urine. lately i've also been having bad stomach pain and did an endoscopy that so far found nothing. Besides the stomach pain I've always been somewhat anemic, get sick a lot, and had a mild cva and stillbirth 11 years ago. doctors have just not been helpful at figuring out what is wrong with me. Also, my autoimmune usually normal but once ana was above normal, and the one time i checked vitamin d it was below normal, and also missing protein c. any help highly appreciated!!
What causes high Trigycerides and low HDL? Every one "knows" that a high fat diet negatively effects our blood lipid profile. So should Dr Roger Blumenthal (Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center for the Prevention of Heart Disease, Baltimore, MD) be sacked for this misleading statement? 'The "low-fat-diet message" has also become ingrained in recent decades, and this may have led to greater consumption of sweets and carbohydrates, which would also tend to drive up triglyceride levels and decrease HDL' Carbohydrates causing high triglycerides and low HDL. Surely not?

Someone told me the simple sugars in the soda my have temporarily raised my triglycerides and that i may not have a problem at all.

My doctor just told me that my triglycerides are high. He recommended fish oil pills x3perday.? Ok I know I am overweight. Yet I never suspected triglycerides to be high and I am not 100% I even know what triglycerides are. I read the info online about them and it seems to be very confusing. How do you lower your triglycerides and get healthy? The fat just doesn't seem to want to go in my mid-section. So what now? And which fish oil supplements won't make me smell like fish? or taste it? I heard they made you burp yucky smelling ugh! I don't eat a whole lot of red meat but I will cut it out 95% if that's what it takes.
I just had my yearly physical, and my triglycerides are high..? My Total clorestoral is 184, which is good. My HDL is 33, but preferrably should be above 40 or higher. My LDL is 104, Less than 130 is ok, and less than 100 is preferred. The bad news is that my Triglycerides are at 237 and should be less than 150. How do I lower the triglycerides in a healthy manner? For anybody who has dealt with this, What did you do? I don't eat a lot of fried foods, and have been eating more fish for several years now. Any suggestions?
Thyroid cont ion w/ high triglycerides...any suggestions for getting it lower? I am being medicated for a hypothyroidism. I got test results today that show that my thyroid is getting back to normal but my triglycerides are at 255. My colesteral is fine. I try to eat a low fat diet (been rough with the holidays) and don't eat a lot of sweets. I don't want to go on more medication. Any suggestions? My doctor mentioned some drug that blocks fat? What would they put you on to reduce your triglycerides?
Besides conventional medication, what kind of non-traditional medication reduces triglycerides? I'm interested in finding out if anybody has experimented with non-traditional (herbs, etc) ways to reduce either their cholesterol or triglyceride levels? I am currently taking gemfibrozil & niaspan (2000 mg) and I can't get below 400 on my triglyceride level. It was 1,400. It is genetic, but I could still help myself out by eating better, believe me. Easier said than done, though. I worry about my liver functions holding up over time with the conventional medications. Last summer I was in the best shape of my life and I still had high ldl, low hdl and high triglycerides. Much improved, but still not a pretty picture.
