My mom that is 77, had a calcium scoring done and got a 286, can anyone explain what that means? ## Hello, Peg! How are you? While most of our calcium is absorbed by our teeth and bones, there's usually about 1% that streams through our blood. Overtime, as we age, it can start to leave deposits in the arteries and is especially problematic, when it's in the coronary arteries. The higher the score, the more significant the calcium deposits and the higher the person is at risk of cardiovascular events. Anything from 101 to 400 is significant of definite, at least moderate, atherosclerotic plaque, which means there is a high likelihood that they have mild coronary artery disease with significant narrowing of the arteries as possibility. This is the basic summation provided by the N...

Doc prescribed Rosuvas 5 for my husband for his high cholesterol. The label says Rosuvastatin Calcium IP equivalent to Rosuvastatin 5 mg. Are both the same, I am afraid to use the medication since it says Calcium - my husband has stones in his kidney. ## It is not that type of calcium, in this case it just refers to the specific chemical salt that the medication has been derived from. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, dizziness and joint/muscle aches. Learn more: Is there anything else I can help with?

Prescription of zandip 20 mg , physiotens 0.4mg, karvezide 300 mg for high b.p ( 180/80). Recently added verpamil hydrochloride SR 240 mg trial with 0.4 mg physiotens, karvezide and Zanadip 10 mg. is this combo compatible? There is not much improvement. ## Are you also watching your diet? If you're sodium sensitive, then that could cause blood pressure elevation. Do you also get lots of proper exercise? That is also vital to blood pressure control. You really can't just take medications and expect them to do all of the work. What types of foods do you normally eat? Do you have any other medical conditions?

I read nifedipine causes breast cancer. Is it true? It's supposed to be taken twice daily for high blood pressure. ## Hello, Mercedes! How are you? Are you post-menopausal? That is when the greatest risk was found, though more research is needed to be sure of that and it seemed only relevant to calcium channel blockers, according to JAMA and the studies they have already compiled. Thus, if you are concerned, you could always speak to your doctor about trying a medication that is in a different class, such as a beta blocker. Is this the only medication you are taking?
