Eight years ago my Calcium scoring test was 1350. I was on 40mg Atorvastatin daily.
I had a triple by-pass. Watched my diet and got the LDL down to 40, Now I take 1/2 of a 10mg Atorvastatin every other day. I had post op AFIB after 3 of my operations-otherwise no sign of it. The cardiologist still wants me on Eliquis blood thinner/anti-coagulant. I get the generic, Apixaban, from a Canadian pharmacy.

Thank you for sharing… That’s amazing that you got your LDL so low!!! That is what I’m trying to do right now! My doctor wants it at 40.
Stay strong… seems like you are on the right path. I wish you all the best.
