Research
is there any research into getting rid of plaques in your arteries, I have a small one and was told to take statins, but they only slow progression and from what I can gather statins have been the only answer for 40 years!!!

Getting slight breathlessness when walking.
For a long time I had a med/light pain in the sternum area when I stride out which passes as I continue. Sort of warming up my thought on it. I get ectopics but only about 1000 a day ish but manageable. I have mild ischaemia. Recently when just walking normally I had a breathlessness thing. It only lasted
