Relating to or found in the blood.
From Greek 'haima' (blood) + the suffix '-ic' (relating to). This adjective form developed as physicians needed a way to describe blood-related conditions and characteristics.
When doctors say 'haemic disorder,' they're talking about something fundamentally wrong with your blood itself—not just an infection, but a problem with how your blood works.
