diagnosed with a high calcium score of 1350

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.

Hello @vjo16
I appreciate you providing a bit more detail about your current health issues related to menopause. On Mayo Connect, we have a Women's Health support group where many are discussing the problems of menopause. Here is a link to the discussions where this is mentioned,

If you are interested in a consultation at a Mayo Clinic facility, here is the link that will give you information on obtaining an appointment at Mayo Clinic, http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.
Are you currently having heart symptoms such as heart rate problems (racing heart, etc.) or are there other symptoms of menopause that you are trying to address? I'm also wondering if you have taken hormone replacement therapy in the past?
