My PCP had recommended calcium screening for several years. When I finally had it done I had a 513 so my PCP referred me to a cardiologist. She ordered and echocardiogram and a stress test. I was referred to a PharmD to discuss diet and statins. Been on statin ever since.

Just found out CAC 1855. I've been on Atovastatin for 7 yrs. cholesterol Hdl / Ldl, BP weight has been in guidelines. To get cleared for hernia surgery I also asked for additional tests. Lipoprotein (a) is 218. Moved forward with surgery last Wednesday. On Monday I had a nuclear stress test which indicates some blockage. Carotid artery 50%blockage. Heart echo was ok. im very active. Play pickle ball competitively. walk dogs for a mile most days. Tomorrow I will know when I will be scheduled for angiogram. Should I ask surgeon about Repatha?

No, once calcium builds up in your coronary arteries, medical treatments and lifestyle changes generally cannot lower your calcium score. However, therapies like statins and heart-healthy habits stabilize existing plaque, significantly reducing your actual risk of a heart attack even if the score remains unchanged or slightly increases once you have it nothing lowers it just keeps it stable
