First of all angiography is not a treatment. It is only a diagnostic test to rule out blockages in the heart. It occurs very commonly at your age. We are even seeing similar cases in a decade younger people than you. The sensitivity of Tmt is around 70 to 80%. So the chances of it being falsely positive is around 20% to 30%. I would recommend that you do a coronary angiography and rule out ischemic heart disease
