@drmohammedalo: Did your calcium score go UP after starting a statin? Don't panic yet. In FLOWPROMOTE, calcified plaque rose a little in both groups while the soft, rupture-prone plaque was melting away. Statins turn unstable plaque into hard, stable plaque. Never stop a medication you need because of one number; talk to your doctor. If you want the full trial, watch the full video.
