My score is 2,854. Tons of tests, yadda yadda yadda, and 2 cardiologists said 5 years ago, we would have rushed to stent you. Today, your blood flow looks perfect so we'll put you on some statin drug and monitor every year. I also have an aortic aneurysm that they will monitor. So relax my friend. Just manage your cholesterol and everything will be find.

When you say the docs say "blood flow looks perfect", what test are you referring to that they know that? Does the same test look for things like an aortic aneurysm or is that something different?

what age range are you if you don't mind me asking?
