Living with high calcium score

In mid- to long-term follow-up, statin therapy increases the CAC score as documented by serial non-contrast cardiac CT, suggesting that the plaque-stabilizing effect of statins may be reflected in a higher CAC score [8,9].

I agree with your cardiologist, no need for angiogram.
Don’t go for calcium score test again , statins increase calcium score .

Thank you for that .

Many have said why wouldn’t they do an angiogram . It’s a diagnostic peace of mind
