Low risk: Based on the information you've provided, and assuming that you have normal blood pressure, you are at essentially the same risk as any other healthy 35 yo male. Less than 1 of 100 people with this level of risk will have a heart attack in the next 10 years. You can calculate your own cardiovascular risk at: http://cvdrisk.nhlbi.nih.gov/
