Have you been taking statins? That might be the cause as statins are designed to harden plaque. Loose plaque is worse. In any case, more tests are in order to be sure your blood flow is good. If it is, don’t worry. It’s not a death sentence. I’m not a doctor but I’d say keep doing what you’re doing if you get a good nuclear stress test etc to check blood flow. That’s the key.
