jkluv7, I've been feeding this thread with replies to everyone. In summary, when got CAC=1,328 five months ago, did echo stress, did carotid intima thickness test, went to statin 40 mg, had lipid particles and LP(a) tested, going on PCSK-9 this week, waiting for cardiologist to give me Zetia, considering 20 or so supplements, I DID do them before, ask me for list, and considering K2. Since got CAC score, there's been a lot of anxiety and stress, it's life changing in that the end is nearer that I thought, but my mother made it to 93 years old, and my brother is still alive with three stents. I want an invasive angiogram to head off waiting for a bad event, wherein they will do an invasive angiogram. Go figure. Thanks for reply. Do you have a CAC score?

I am so used to Facebook where the replies and comments go directly under the post... not scattered throughout 6 pages... Sorry about that. Do I have a CAC score? I have 3 CAC scores. First at only 3,660... Second at 2,817 and third at 2,242. I am getting my next one in June and will be in the 1 thousands somewhere. The only cardiologist I ever saw about 6 years only wanted to push statin drugs. No discussion about lifestyle or diet... only drugs. That is not a doctor, that is a drug-pusher. So got this under control on my own through my Naturopath doctor.
