Any people in their 40s with very high CAC scores?

I am on 10mg rosuvastatin which has lowered my LDL to 74. The doctor would like it to be even lower, but instead of increasing the statin dose, we've added 10mg ezetimibe. Studies show that the additional benefit of that is better than increasing the statin dose.

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. My numbers were nearly ok on 5 mg of rosuvastatin, so just increasing to the standard 10 mg dose seemed the best first step to be more aggressive about getting the numbers even lower. But I'll see how things go from there and see if adding something else makes sense!
