I had the same test that found my 4,2 cm. Six months later, I had a different test where they injected iodine. It showed 3.9. They said the that test was more accurate to measure. I went home and don't have to come back for a year.

I had the dye test as well and it went from 4.3 regular CT scan to 3.9 with the dye test. Watch and wait period. I'm on meds for high cholesterol and blood pressure. I need to exercise more and lose weight; drink less, and eat more healthy. Going for the echo cardio on Tuesday. One day at a time but I find this group helpful and know it's more common than I thought. Thank you all for sharing.
