Coronary OK, just carotid blockage
So my stress test was good. No sign of coronary blockage. Odd, I always thought carotid disease followed coronary disease.
So Dr. said left carotid is High moderate, 50-70% blocked. He will repeat test in 6 months to see if rapid changes or somewhat slower, then yearly. So cholesterol, baby aspirin, exercise (no limitations), healthy eating, etc...
My mother had carotid artery issues, so may be predisposed to some of it.
Now I am curious if some symptoms chalked up to MS may be this issue or partially related. See neuro in June, so will be interesting conversation.
Thanks for sharing your story!
