43, non-smoker, white, eat pretty well, fairly fit marathoner, high cholesterol but maintained with Niaspan.  Just had echocardiogram and results are mild aortic sclerosis.  Reading about this..wow..what more can/should I do? Have not been back for follow up yet..
Hello! Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Regarding your concern, I would recommend taking a statin (atorvastatin, simvastatin, etc.) and daily aspirin 80\u00a0mg, to prevent the progression of atherosclerosis and prevent for possible ischemic events. From the other hand, I would recommend periodically scheduled follow-ups with ultrasound every 12 months and routing check up (blood lipid profile, resting ECG, chest X-ray study and further lab tests) every 6 months. It is important avoiding possible risk factors
