I am 63 yrs. old and have never visited a doctor or had a PCP for about 30-40 yrs. I decided to start a medical record bc I don’t know where I am at in regards of my health. I found out my LDL is high so I went to a Calcium score test and hit a record 1,536 !!! My PCP send me a statin prescription and a Cardio appt. Cardio doc gave me 2 options: a) stress test who he says is 80% accurate and b) an angioplasty procedure. Like some I am in shock. I play tennis 3/4 times a week, swim, etc… and was not ready to even imagine I would be laying in a hospital bed for this monster procedure. I googled if I could reverse my calcium score and I understand this it not possible which makes me shocked again. Right this second I have a very weird type of anxiety…. The kind that won’t go away, like having an empty box that needs to be filled with something and I won’t know what to fill it with…is like an undetermined situation that needs to be addressed. My buddy at 58 collapsed 3 months ago and ended up in a hospital with 3 bypass surgery. Tomorrow I’ll go play tennis…. Until I can’t.
