I recently had an angiogram and it revealed hypotenuse lesions on my liver. I am now worried and wondering whether anyone else has been diagnosed with it. The advice is to have an urgent ultrasound to explore further but the NHS idea of urgent is probably not mine. I also have a calcium score of 10. I can't find out if this rings my death knell or not 😂 . There's evidence of plaques in one area ( I know nothing about the cardiovascular system) but not causing problems at the moment. Anyone know how bad s calcium score of 10 is? I'm 72.

As a fellow GN with cardiac issues I can tell you that a score of 10 is minimal and low risk but should be discussed with a healthcare professional. The top score is 400 so take some comfort that you are a long way from that number. You are doing all the right things and have further tests and appointments in the pipeline. I think you may find yourself on a statin as treatment. Good luck.
