Thank you for asking. I will post full details of my lifelong cardio, yoga, & meditation routines in couple of weeks. Yes, I have done had cardio 3x / week for 50+ years. I was just put on 5 mg / day Crestor by my primary care doc. I'm scheduled for this noninvasive CT Angio Hrt W/Cont W/3D W/FFRCT. Fractional Flow Rate CT measures flow rates of arteries with a 3D simulation. What I was told is that FFR will be done if they see a partial blockage to measure flow rate on both sides of that area Only two hospitals in Phoenix, AZ does this test.
