I just had it done. I’m resisting statins so I had that tested and my c-reactive protein. Has he had that blood test done? My score was a zero for the calcium, but my c-reactive protein is super high. I believe it was because my thyroid was off. I’m giving myself a year of stabilized thyroid before re doing that test again.

I don’t think any dr would do anything proactively like an angioplasty. My brother in law also has a super high score. He takes statins and exercises but eats ice cream like it’s his job.

There are some holistic things he can do as well - I view it as it may not help, but it isn’t hurting me either. Turmeric, fish oil, red yeast rice, magnesium, k2 may all be worth a peek.
