Hi
in your case do stress test ,as is indicated in view of his age , gender , and positive family history , i also advice to do 2 D Echo test also as it will also gives idea of heart pumping fuction
no need to panic but in view of age and positive family history we need to evalute him for abnormal EKG finding
consult your cardiologist and get evaluated
take care
