Relax. Mine at 55 was 2,845. Plus I have the beginning of an aortic aneurysm. Countless tests later and I’m popping 40 mg of statins and we are wait and watch. Once a year I’ll go in for a test. So relax. Get your MRI echo and stress test. The key is how well your body and your heart is pumping blood. You can have arteries that are 95% blocked, but still ample floods flow gets through the opening that exists.

Recently had my second coronary calcium scan. It was in the mid 2200’s. Five years ago it was in mid 1800’s. I had a nuclear stress test after each coronary calcium scan. It show no significant abnormalities both times. The doctor said calcium buildup outside arteries. Confused!
