Mild cardiomegaly?

You are right ... the uncertainty isn't great either. 🙂

Thanks again for your helpful explanations. I didn't know that the flutter might be bowel gas. Interesting.

I am still a few years under 65. I have some level of stenosis in my LAD, but it's "minimal" and "calcified". My RCA has all the problematic stenoses. I hope I can avoid AF, though I gather it can be associated with a high CAC score.

Do I understand correctly that they bypassed the carotid? For some reason, I thought they scraped out those blockages. They bypassed the partially blocked artery?

Bowel gas, and also stomach gas. I have had a sensation in my chest wall that I was about to enter AF (a sensation that has about a 79% predictive coefficient in my body) leaned forward, and belched a couple of times. Problem solved.

I don't know about scraping, but it must be tricky that close to the brain where tiny clumps might be flushed downstream, toward the brain, and cause strokes. Better to take a healthy vein that looks 'much younger' and splint it into place. Yes, around the only artery that was still working.....some.
