Hello, at first I thought you were talking about your calcium bloodwork. I do realize you’re talking about your calcium score on a heart scan. Mine is 23 which was taken a couple weeks ago so I’m not in the range. Most of the people were discussing.
I’m thinking some of my symptoms now are related to menopause, which is really not discussed much and now that I’m 69 years old it’s very difficult to find someone that will give me hormone replacement therapy. I might have to call the Mayo Clinic and discuss it with them where all the experts are.
I am 58 and very physically fit. No symptoms of heart disease but I have a terrible family history. My mom is diabetic and had quadruple bipass and a stroke. I am trying to avoid the same problems as I age
I will be posting often I'm sure, I have had problems with high calcium in the past causing massive kidney stones, they was surgically removed and I had a severe kidney infection after from the stent coming slightly dislodged. The whole process is painful. I'm hoping it never comes to that again but I'm terrified it will
