@summer230 My CT scan was paid out of pocket as well. My doctor knows I'm a little over the top about my health and my cholesterol has always been perfect but this year and last it was just slightly elevated, maybe hormonal - no idea, but she suggested a CT scan so I thought, why not? It was only $103 and I thought at least I could find out if there was any calcium, which I assumed not, but may as well get a baseline. Anyway, your PCP will most likely refer you to a cardiologist. I am also going to see a cardiac surgeon, just so I have someone that I trust in case something goes sideways. Curious to know where in FL you are. I am in St. Pete.

I wish you much health and happiness. I hope you aren't too anxious. You know now so you can monitor it. I just wish there was more guidance on what I can and cannot do physically in terms of exercise. It's such a mixed bag when it comes to guidance. Flying is fine, btw, as long as the cabin is pressurized, as in normal air travel. ~S xoxo
