Subject: RE: Heart disease and CAC scan



BENTON, MO

John I think your advice about getting a CAC scan is spot on.  I have a couple of good friends that would still be here today, if they would have had this scan.  If you have any history of heart disease in you family get it done before it's too late.  

My wife and I both have heart disease history in our families.  So last week we both got a CAC scan and a lung scan also.  Our local hospital has a special they run on a Saturday once a quarter.  For $75 they will do both scans, call you with the results, and inform your doctor.  Luckily both of us had very low scores.  It's nice to know your risk of having a heart attack is very low.
