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.
