Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX welcome to Health care magic,
Good question.
Lately we have gone into an era of over supplementation.
Too much calcium in the blood accompanied by already roughening of blood vessels due to high blood pressure and cholesterol deposits, leads to calcium deposition and hardening of arteries. When this happens to blood vessels in brain, kidneys and heart it can be serious.
Even with normal calcium intake, if there is too much vitamin D calcium absorption is increased.
Please tell me about all the supplements you are taking?
From your previous query I see your medications, but there is no aspirin or blood thinner.
What is your cardiac capacity on 2D Echo?
Answer my queries so that I can advise you better regarding your question whether you are going to die in the next 3 years.

What I was really wanting to know is: how effective are these whole-body scans in detecting heart disease? They also told me I had a couple of gallstones, but may never feel anything from them. :)
Don't worry about me---I see my internist every 6 months and my oncologists every 3 months (the surgical and the medical oncologist switch every other visit), and I see my neurologist once a year. So I think I'm on top of everything. I will mention the whole body scan to my internist and see what she wants to do.
Thanks!
wish you the best!--regards
