Began seeing Cardiologist for first time in my 71 years 6 weeks ago. Earlier this Summer I was having a leg Vein Ablation procedure and the anesthesiologist said I had PVCs during surgery. Over the years my Internist reported some mile irregular heartbeats, had me on a low dose of Ramipril for slightly high BP & Atorvastatin “just to keep any plague on my veins in place”. Internist for years saying “not a good candidate for plaque because cholesterol is near perfect. Back to the Cardi, I’ve had 21 day monitor test, Heart Echo Cardi, Abdominal Echo Cardi, and everything looks okay, the “Irregular HB is very mild case” per Cardiologist. Prescribed BisoProlol to slow things down. Before leaving him today, he suggested I have a Calcium CT Test, insurance won’t pay but it’ll tell us if you have any issues with that even though your cholesterol #s have always been good. I got the call on the way home from the office that my #s were surprisingly high at 2000, compared to 0 being ideal. I almost wrecked the car. Like many on here. I wasn’t having any indication of heart issues, feeling great and very very active 71 year old. One good thing was my Internal Med Doc has had me on the statin for over 10 years so what’s stuck on the walls of my veins may stay there. I go back next week for a Nuclear Stress test and will determine from there the next course.
