Hi There

After reading the medical details provided by you of your husband I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that your doctor has advised him to go for Angiography due to the variations in his TMT results not due to high BP.
Yes it's important to go for Angiography to make sure there is no blockage developing inside the heart vessels because the variations in the TMT results are suggestive of that.

I wish him good health
