Cholesterol numbers are not always indicative. It depends on the type. Carotid scans are the best way to find out. I didn’t have plaque but I had “old arteries”. Zocor fixed that.
LOL! Most FReepers have “old” arteries. We need to recruit some youngsters to get on board. They gave me some astorvastatin so we’ll follow up on that. Just glad I have a VA primary that actually does his job. Actually, I’ve had good luck at our VA. But, our only dermo is useless. Comes over once a month from Cali and rarely sees anyone. We had a Nurse Practioner that I used to see on the outside at the VA for a while but since wasn’t an MD they wouldn’t let her do any more than freeze stuff off so she left.
