lp77,

Not sure "cholesterol numbers are good" tells the story effectively.

What are the lipid numbers? Even better, what are the numbers from an advanced lipids test?

The calcified plaque is not the problem…the stuff they cannot see on the CT scan is. Keep up the healthy lifestyle and enjoy life. My CAC was nearly 1000 at age 57. I did the same, good diet, exercise but I have high Lp(a) - worse than LDL. I am still percolating at 62, but at a much slower pace. Get your Lp(a) checked and keep up the healthy lifestyle. Life is good.
