• Call me Monday afternoon, or sometime early next week to review today's lab results
• Supplements to begin for now:
o Niacin 500mg twice a day (taking with food may reduce flushing); if flushing is
too much, call me or Rony for a prescription for a sustained release form
o One Enteric-coated baby aspirin every 1 to 2 days
o Because of partial folic acid enzyme converting deficiency (MTHFR), take
FolaPro form of folic acid by Metagenics; 1 twice a week
o Nordic Naturals Omega 3 Fatty Acid Fish Oil; 1 capsule twice a day or 2
capsules once a day (approx 800 mg OPA/DHA)
o Magnesium Citrate (Solgar is a good brand); 200mg once a day (taken at
bedtime may act as a mild muscle relaxant)
o Sublingual (under the tongue) B12 (Solgar is a good brand); 1,000mcg daily
o Culturelle is an excellent brand of probiotic (acidophilus) to help digestion and
intestinal immunity; one capsule/day
• Give a trial of a very low dose of Crestor. Start with /2 of a 5mg tablet twice a week. If
no side effects occur (usually musculoskeletal or cognitive) after 2 weeks, increase to
every other day. After 3-4 weeks on this dosage regimen recheck cholesterol blood
test. Stop at any time if side effects occur
• Follow up with Dr. Rony Shimony 110 East 59th Street 8th Floor NY NY 10021 - - 212-
752-2700 for cardiovascular cholesterol consultation after above blood test: I will
send him a note with a copy of today's
• Schedule a one hour visit for an annual check up in the fall
• We discussed that the triglycerides are still high; cut back not only on starches, but
also oils (this will help with weight loss as well)
• Due to a tendency for slightly high blood sugar (elevated glycohemoglobin), eliminate
all refined carbohydrates (sugar, white flour, white rice, rolls, potatoes, etc.). Use
small amounts of complex carbohydrates (whole grains); use lots of vegetables and a
couple fruits as your main source of starch
• Eliminate all saturated fats from your diet. This is obviously important for your
cardiovascular and cholesterol issues, but saturated fat also promotes inflammation
(inflammatory prostaglandins, cytokines, etc) in the body in general
• Begin a regular aerobic exercise program
• Try to do a daily breath-based session/meditation (at least 2 minutes, preferably 15)
with frequent breath breaks throughout the day. This will not only reduce stress in
general and on your cardiovascular system, but reduce cortisol levels as well
• If your PTH has gone up significantly from previous, you should see your Yale
parathyroid specialist (depending on today's lab results)
• Try as much as possible to go on a plant-based diet. Consider reading Arthur
Agatston's "The South Beach Diet" and Dean Omish's "Reversing Heart Disease"

MRI of the lumbar spine without contrast:
Sagittal Ti, T2 and STIR images demonstrate normal bone marrow
signal.
There is diminished signal within the L1 to and L4-L5
intervertebral discs. These findings are consistent with
dehydration.
There is a disc bulge which is diffuse at the L4-L5 level with
protrusion centrally associated with moderate degenerative
changes of the apophyseal joints bilaterally the combination
causing a moderate central stenosis. There is also mild
encroachment on the left lateral recess.
There is a disc bulge at L5-S1 but no significant central or
lateral re ss tehgais.
IMPRESSION: , -
There is a d ffuse disc bulge at 1 associated with
central prof ' AUSihd m ate .tenosis as well as
left lateral recess stenosis.

SALIENT ISSUES
• Blood tests done with Dr. Woodson Merrell on 11/18/2010 revealed a total cholesterol of
199 end HDL of 26. LDL could not be calculated secondary to trig)ycerides of 679. The
cholesterol to HDL ratio was 7.7. CRP was 0.9. Hemoglobin Mc was 5.8.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS
• Review of systems in detail is otherwise negative.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
• GENERAL' On physical examination, he is in no distress.
• VITAL SIGNS BP 120/70 mmHg.
• THORAXANDLuta:is Chest is clear.
• CARDIOVASCULAR. There is no S3 gallop.
• ABDOMEN. Abdomen is soft.
• EXTREMITIES. Extremities are benign.
DIAGNOSTIC STUDIES
• A CTA of the coronary arteries done today revealed a total coronary calcium score of 53 (0
in the left main artery and 53 in the left anterior descending artery). This represented a 13%
increase from 2008. There was a zero calcium score seen in the circumflex artery and the
right coronary artery. The resultant was less than 50% calcified plaque in the proximal to
mid left anterior descending artery. There was 25% to 50% stenosis in the ostial part of first
diagonal artery. The right coronary artery and the circumflex artery as well as the left main
artery were normal.
• An echocardiogram done today revealed normal left ventricular size and systolic function.
The valvular structures were normal There was trivial mitral regurgitation secondary to
valve leaflet closure.
• On exercise treadmill test today. he exercised to 20.4 METs with a peak heart rate of
148 beats per minute, representing 90% of predicted maximum heart rate. The peak blood
pressure was 145/70 inning. There was no chest pain, no ST segment depressions to
suggest ischemia, and no arrhythmias. An echocardiogram done immediately post peak
exercise demonstrated normal left ventricular size, systolic function, and augmentation,
with no regional wall motion abnormality.
IMPRESSION
• Mr. Epstein had muscular reaction with cramps to Lipitor as well as Crestor. His blood tests
reflect lack of exercise for 6 months as well as no medications. We will start him on Livalo
(piUtvastatin) at 2 mg p.o. daily ae well es Niaspan 500 mg p.o. daily, to be titrated to
1000 mg. He tolerated Niaspan in the past well. He will also be placed on a baby aspirin
81 mg p.o. daily. He is to have blood tests done in 6 weeks. The patient has been

entirely normal and triphasic. The study was done due to his complaint of claudication.

1.13 on the left both are normal. The aorta below the renal arteries and above the iliac
arteries was normal in size, measuring 2.0 x 1.9 cm in maximum diameter in the mid section.
