Hi @ss52 . Welcome to Connect! I see on your first post you have a high calcium score and are waiting to get a heart cath done to help fill in some blanks as far as what is going. You have to be feeling stressed. That will be helpful.

When is your procedure scheduled? If you are comfortable sharing, what prompted you to get a calcium test?

Thank you for responding. My cath is next Friday however I have been experiencing scapula pain that is radiation from left to right scapula. And some chest discomfort. Really not sure if I'm having now more anxiety or actual heart issue. But the reason I end up getting a calcium scoring because my first cardiologist I got in 2021 with brief afib episode. He had me on lots of medication in my blood pressure was running 90 over 80 so I sought a second opinion. The new cardiologist, she did a workup on several things as a new patient and immediately found the 1358 calcium scoring after seeing her only once
