Hello, HOCM is a condition when your heart muscles get thickened abnormally and creates issues. Dilzem is not the proper medicine for that, Better to take some other more effective medicines. Need to see your reports to give you exact guidence. Don't worry at all, you will be fine. Feel free to take my consultation on Lybrate.

You must be hypertensive as this is one of the most common cause of LVH. If the thickness is not very high and you don't have a high diastolic dysfunction you don't have to worry.
In case if you are hypertensive then ace inhibitors or arb are the best suited medicine for you (if KFT and electrolytes are normal).

If you have hypertension, or take treatment for hypertension, meet a physician and keep BP under control. If mild hypertrophy is without hypertension, meet a mild cardiologist. Avoid meeting a severe cardiologist for mild hypertrophy.

Continuous intake of painkiller can damage kidney. For pain you can take tramadol which will very less toxic effect to kidney. Get dose of medicine adjusted. Do deep breathing exercise to relieve anxiety and in turn pain.

Recently I am (32 yrs) diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis, hlab27 +ve & sacroiliitis at hip joints - recently had infliximab injection, would this helpful or need medication for lifetime.

Dr. Ajay Kamat90%(21 ratings)

To be honest, one injection will mostly not cure the illness. Ankylosing spondylitis can be a disabling condition leading to many problems. You will need physical therapy along with other medication as well as clinical assessment and other blood investigations. The duration of treatment will ultimately depend on the disease severity which will be clear if you consult an orthopaedician/rheumatologist for the same.
