I guess I don't see the point in heart calcium testing then. Seems like it only detects hardened plaque, but it's the soft stuff you worry about? And is there a link between high blood pressure and arterial plaque? So confused...:confused2:
The soft stuff causes sudden death the hard stuff causes slow death. Before the hard stuff there is always soft stuff that gradually gets hard. And accumulates. My brother took the test and his result were bad. He had several years that he could have tried to reverse his heart disease by diet and statins. He followed the advice of his cardiologist to eat less red meat, and that's about all he did. That cardiologist had not researched the available data and neither did my brother. About three years after he had a really bad score he was up to 95% blockage in three of his arteries. He complained of flue like symptoms and that was his last night.

RNG if you use the data to give you incentive to go all the way to try to reverse your disease and stop growing soft plaque, let the soft plaque harden, and not accumulate you then have control over your disease. Otherwise stents and bypass are next. It is very hard for people to do because by eating cholesterol and fats that irritate the linning of your arteries you feel no pain while eating or after and eating that type of food is enjoyable. The calcium test detects the heart disease long before you fail a stress test and once you fail the stress test it's too late you will be given the scare talk by your cardiologist and will have stents or bypasses.

Heart disease is a food related disease. Is there anyone that does not believe this? Every person has hereditary differences and their body reacts to food differently. Kyle and I are on the extremes, of course I'm on the wrong end and must compensate by strict diet. Heart disease is the nations #1 killer so there are lots of people on the wrong end.

Last cold morning here before the big warmup.
Going to be busy today planting the rest of the corn, first must re-till the row tops.

38 degrees going to low sixties today, seventies and 80's later this week.
And yeah, the lawn now needs mowing. Job security.

Mostly, any new pics of the boat? That sounds like a wonderful project, when in doubt, put in another bilge pump...

Isn't it time for some more pictures of ducks, chickens and lambs?

32 going to 62 and sunny.

Don, thanks for being a good advocate, a well educated researcher, and for reminding us.

Yesterday's cold morning got me in the mood to cut, split and stack firewood on a pallet. I have one more load to split today. Also dug another FEL bucket load of sand from the creek and filled 3 holes - 2 where I had dug out big rocks, and the other where animals had dug out a huge yellow jacket ground nest. I put 5 shovels of sand and dirt into the hornet hole.

Wife comes home today from a few days in NC where she has taken her dad for a procedure.

Randy, are you sure you don't want fuzzy dice on the Monte C to match those on your tractor? :)

Drinking second cup of coffee. 33° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 55° with AM snow. Got nothing done yesterday. Had upset stomach all day. Feel good today. Most of snow is gone. But maybe some fresh stuff this morning. Wednesday is garbage day. Need to get the 100 gallon tote out front. Off to PT. Then try to do yesterday projects.

Randy, that car need some color. PINK fluffy dice should do it. :D

Riptide, getting away form each other is good for both of you. My wife thinks better when I leave her for awhile. New list. :D But she does not physical problems so most problems are easy to fix by being her mouth piece on the phone.

LS, keep up the recovery.

Farmer, hope son does well with new tubes.

Prayers for all in need.

Good Morning All.
