Am I needlessly worried? I am a middle aged woman at the lowest risk for heart disease (online calcuators say 1% in the next 10 years) with no family history, elderly parents, good cholesterol ratio and triglyceride levels, no diabetes, am fit, exercise nearly every day, eat heart healthy, have normal blood pressure below 120/80. I stumbled upon research that links a crease in the earlobe to predicting heart disease independent of and in the absense of any risk factors. I have googled and read everything I could find, but am getting more confused. Some articles say it must be in both ears (mine is in one); some say it must be deep (what is deep??) and some say it applies to men. Any help or reassurance would be greatly appreciated.
