The reverse can be true too: high cholesterol, but little
or no coronary plaque. People with low cholesterol think
they're in the clear until that day comes when their
heart gives out. It's a relatively new, but super easy
procedure that takes only a few minutes on a table
as the run a CT scan on you and give you a printout.
Most insurance doesn't cover it yet (too new?),
but it was the best $79 I've spent in a long time.

Weird thing with me, though. I don't have anything wrong with my blood vessels. What I have is in the family. Some flaw in my DNA gave me an enlarged heart basically. I mean, don't get me wrong, we do have a history of high cholesterol and such (My grandmother's arteries were clogged so bad Drano couldn't have helped), but I've been lucky in that regard. Anyway, I see the cardiologist January 3 so maybe I can get a better idea what is going on with the latest here.

Well, that’s good that you know that you have good blood vessels,
but my comment was about your coronary calcium. From Hopkins.
You should, at the very least, ask your doctor about that on Monday.

Spent four hours cleaning house while listening to Iggy's radio show.
Put up another bit of artwork that's pretty much a reduction of our old kitchen to a simple construct.

Getting drunk with my wife and her sister is always a good time.
