A member asked:
Drs office called with chest xray results and said it showed a calcified blood vessel but dr wasnt worried. what does this mean? should i worry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't worry: Calcified blood vessel in the chest simply means that one of your blood vessels has some calcium in the lining. It is usually is not a problem especially at the age of 27. To be sure that there's nothing wrong you might ask what the results of your recent blood test were especially the metabolic panel
