@tabicat03 If your CAC is over zero, then standard procedure is to take statins, which will prevent further accumulation by lowering your LDL as well as calcify any "dangerous" soft plaque you may have. So, yes, you should be taking it even though you have no symptoms. I have a CAC score higher than yours, and I am a runner and have no symptoms - but I still take a statin.
Do you have an LDL test result?
