[|Human|] I just had cath yesterday and was found 50% blockage at LAD bifurcation and a 70 blockage in circumflex artery. Had no clinical symptoms but failed cardiolite stress test at 4 minutes with multiple PVCs. Have familial history of sudden cardiac death at 52 and 66 years old. The cardiologist at cath lab did not stent but rather suggested double bypass surgery. Am scheduled for surgery in 10 days. My cholesterol with 10 mg Crestor use has dropped from 260 to 182. And they have doubled ton 20 mg. And triglycerides dropped from 299 to 87. I am considering a second opinion based on internet searches. What is your opinion?
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor Service.  I reviewed your query and here is my answer.  The labs results shows that you have normal and good cholesterol level. Keeping these levels in cardiac patient or in people like you is mandatory in order to decrease both the mortality and morbidity in patient. Also, such person like you are at risk for atherosclerosis, so low cholesterol levels will not form atherosclerosis which in turn will not cause stenosis of blood vessels, which will keep you safe from cardiac events.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
