Hello and welcome to HCM,
A strongly positive TMT test indicates that the blood supply to your heart muscles are compromised during stress or exercise.
Compromise to blood supply to heart muscles is due to reduced blood supply to heart.
This reduced blood supply can be due to obstruction of large blood vessels or small blood vessels.
In order to know the site of blood vessel obstruction, an angiography is required.
In case there is obstruction of some large blood vessel, angioplasty will be done.
In case there is obstruction of small blood vessels, medical treatment will be continued.
Thus, get in touch with your cardiologist for further work up.

Thanks and take care
