A member asked:
My parents dont have coronary disease symptoms. but my grant parents from both sides died from heart disease. does it mean i have heredity or not?

You do: If no symptoms for your parents, it does not mean they do not have mild asymptomatic disease. Your family history is positive for coronary artery disease and that will count as a point in your risk stratification for coronary artery disease.
