that makes me feel better that someone else has similar issue and diagnosis. My most blocked artery is about the same. I was put on 5mg statin a few months ago. After the angiogram i was also told to take 1 baby aspirin a day.

@robmtk my husband is also on Aspirin 81mg daily also, but I suggested it to the cardiologist and she agreed. ( I’m a retired pharmacist who reviewed medical charts for years). His atorvastatin was increased from 10 mg to 80 mg immediately. The cardiologist wants his LDL 40-50. We return to cardio 3 months post the dose increase to reassess.
