Cac score, scared

I had 1350 on my score. I was just taking statins and doing OK. One week I had mild indigestion.
Then one Wednesday night I had serious indigestion and drove myself to the hospital.
An enzyme in my blood was indicating heart problems. Friday morning I had a Cardio Catherization. The head of cardiac surgery said that people with this much blockage don't survive a heart attack. Monday morning I had my CABG. That was eight years ago!

@lenmayo

Why was your surgery done on Monday morning and not on the previous Friday?
