Do a Google search for "Framingham risk calculator" - about fifty sites will come up, all allowing you to calculate your "Framingham risk score," an imperfect but still useful way of assessing 10-year risk for coronary artery disease events. You'll need to know your total and HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, and medical history. It's worth mentioning that being evaluated appropriately by a trained physician adds significantly to that risk assessment, since there are lots of factors that aren't captured by Framingham risk alone.

Just do a search on "heart disease risk assessment". It will give a list of things that will fit you or not: Age, family history, smoking history, overweight, regular exercise, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, healthy diet, adequate fresh foods in the diet, stress, etc. They use those to establish a probability that you are likely to get it, and when. Some of us get it despite the statistics
