gravity3,

I am not a medical professional.

You don't mention having had a CAC scoring? If not, I would certainly consider it - they're about $100 and can serve as the basis for follow-on tests.

You also didn't provide your lipid panel results - can you provide? Are you on statins? Physical condition? Age? Consider an advanced lipids panel, as well.

Also, immediately get stress test with echo ... this will provide a lot more information - especially whether of not you need to be cathed.

I would not wait. I would also consider consulting with a cardiologist - don't wait.
