If it is "bad" then you and your doctor can decide together the next step. My GP considered the CAC score, cholesterol(still), age, history...she appeared to have some formula...and all together tests indicated no action was necessary. Action might be lifestyle changes, statins, aspirin, or surgery which may save your life...better to know and have choices. At least the test itself is nothing to be scared of...a very simple and easy test.
