Most probably it was not a heart attack it would have been just some atypical chest pain for which your doctor evaluated and treated conservatively on medical management. Because you cannot have a heart attack with a normal TMT moreover your doctor would never advise you to go for a TMT if you have had a heart attack so recently.. so in view of the limited information I have.... i can say that your father does not urgently need an angiography but yes and angiography can be done to confirm whether or not there are any blockages in the heart. Rest if I get to see the reports I can comment further
