@ochip what testing was done to show blood flow in the arteries? That's what I'm trying to get my cardiologist to set up for me but she says as long as I've never had symptoms she sees no reason. I'm like you: 2316 score but have been exercising all my life, mountaineering, bicycling in the Rockies - the gym the whole enchilada so to speak. As soon as I got my score I wrote a good bye letter to my wife thinking that the end is nigh.. But I don't feel that way anymore.

2996 calcium score. I said I had chest pain and I got the angiogram done. Calcium was in the artery walls/ so blood flow is not restricted to the ticker. The scores are exact but not absolute.There is alot of wiggle room in predicting an event. I was told to drop 30 and eat right , stay on statins and BP meds, and stay active (exercise) i.e. - live a healthy life. The rest we leave up to fate. Is she a beautiful siren in the night, or a siren in the night going to the ER😊❓❓
