Yeah, this is good to get this. I seem to remember recommending this to everyone here a few years ago because I was surprised to find out that you can have normal cholesterol and still have a high calcium score if plaque has already developed over time.
Conversely, someone with high cholesterol might have a zero calcium score, but that doesn't mean they're risk-free. Soft plaque, which is more rupture-prone, may still be there.
I came out with a big fat zero, but I feel better that I went.
I remember it being only $75 when I got it and, yes, it wasn't covered by insurance.
