Scan Arteries - Avoid Heart Attacks

Postby RedVEVO » December 14th, 2017, 1:45 pm

Where can you get a scan of the heart ?

The coronary artery calcium score is a measurement of the amount of calcium in the walls of the arteries that supply your heart muscle, using a special computed tomography (CT) scan of your heart. It shows the amount of hardening of the artery wall (a disease called atherosclerosis) .

Why not exercise and change the smoking habits & diet of your friends and relatives.all the pacemaker , stenting and cardiac bypass ain’t going to help you if you already worried about this.

I think OP wants to know his status so that he can deal with the situation one time before reaching the operating table and spending your retirement money on drugs in the future.

I'm interested in doing this test also.

Put it this way the plaque in the arteries could never be removed, when you eat processed food, especially food that is hydrogenated like peanut butter or biscuits and snacks etc you do damages to the arteries. One of the best heart surgeon in the world from Canada spoke about it he says these food when you eat it, the result is exactly like taking a hard tooth brush and scraping the arteries until it bleeds he says it literally has scars on the artery walls, so when inflammation is sent to repair the damage like any cut the cholesterol sticks to the inflammation or something to that extent. Wish I still had the link to the article maybe someone can google and find it.

Long story short, from all the doubles and processed food we eat, the average 30 year old Trini eating fast food is halfway fcked by 30. And by 55 you will be dead, so just assume you have way clogged and start eating right, and save the money you would waste on this test.

The Calcium Test (CT) is " new " in Trinidad .

So the aim here to to put together a list of doctors , phone # and locations etc.

The CT will show you what is going on with your arteries .

Doctors recommend a " stress test " which may really be a waste of money .

The Calcium Test seems to be the " new way " nowadays .

Like the iPhone X :D

an Echo shows if the valves are thickening. but weight loss is key.

Is this CT SCAN in any way related to a Angiogram?
Bcuz a Angiogram test determines the status of your atreries '' CLOGGED OR UNCLOGGED IN A PERCENTAGE RANGE
