Can you explain about the calcium score? Is this because your cholesterol went up. Mine has gone up but I wonder if it is because I haven't watched my diet over the last couple of months.

Cholesterol goes up with Leterozole as does triglycerides.

Calcium score is a prognostic indicator of arterial health ( current level of plaque build up). It’s a low power CT. One could have an elevated cholesterol but not necessarily have arterial plaque build up … in my case it was zero so doc not concerned about my cholesterol level.
I do pay attention to nutrition and cholesterol .
Hope this helps!
