Comments from you V patients and smart Doctors on this board welcomed.

Recently had my annual physical and my cholesterol is creeping up a bit....(2018 - LDL = 105), (2020 - LDL=120), (2022 - LDL = 121 total cholesterol 209. My BP is usually borderline around 139/85 ish. I'm not on any meds. I do try to take 2 gms of Ultra EPA daily. I've yet to be successful in getting a V prescription. My doctor has mentioned a low dose statin to lower the cholesterol or have a heart scan to have a look at things for any coronary calcium build up. Only $99 for a scan so well worth it. I had the scan and of course have zero knowledge relative to what it would show. So the Coronary Calcium score came back as 0 which is good I'm told and implies that I am at low risk for at least 5 years.


FINDINGS: Agatston score of 0. Left main 0, LAD 0, RCA 0, and LCx 0.There is no significant calcification of the aortic valve appreciated. The aortic root appears normal in size. The ascending aorta appears normal in size.

So again, I'd welcome feedback from you folks that have dealt with heart lingo and issues of your own. Thanks in advance!
