If your cholesterol came back normal, does that mean your heart is in the clear?
Not necessarily; and that's exactly what this video is about.
In this video, Dr. Siddiqui breaks down why a normal cholesterol panel doesn't always tell the full story when it comes to cardiovascular risk.
She walks you through three questions that every patient should be asking:
What is my statistical risk? Is my risk higher than it appears on basic blood work? And Do I already have measurable plaque in my arteries?Each of these questions requires a different tool to answer - from standard labs and risk calculators, to more refined markers like ApoB and Lp(a), to imaging tests like a coronary artery calcium score.
Understanding the difference between these tools is what allows for earlier, more precise, and more personalized prevention.
Because heart disease doesn't begin with a dramatic event.
It's a process that quietly unfolds over years - often without symptoms, and sometimes without any obvious abnormalities on routine lab work.
The earlier you understand what's actually happening inside your arteries, the more intentional you can be about protecting your heart long term.
