Hi.
Yes dilzem is safe for females and does not affect her child bearing capacity. However once pregnancy is established it should be changed to some other drug as it is a category c drug for pregnancy.
For what arrhythmia are you taking dilzem?

From your medicines it seems that you also have some heart problem in addition to high blood pressure. Your treatment plan can only be finalised after having a look on all your investigations.

You have to take medicines on long term basis. But which medicines to continue has to be decided by your physician. People may differ on the type of medicines needed for long term use.

Osteoporosis: Hot or cold compresses. Applying heat or cold may help. "Some people like heat, some like cold, Deal says. "Whatever feels best.
Leg pain: If you have leg pain then you have to rule out the casues for having leg pain.

Thanks doctor, but consulting a psychiatrist won't help. My main fear is that do we actually have n fowleri amoeba present in water bodies in india, especially underground water. Next can one simply get it my washing face or mere sniffing in a drop while bathing as I found such a concern on quora. My main concern is that even if present in a water body can it go so easily in sinus cavity or one has to force it up like by cleansing sinus, aggressively breathing in or diving/swimming. I had read somewhere that azithromycin is also used to treat it and since once symptoms of pam appear, it is nearly always fatal, I worry using the underground water now, and take the tablets. So does it actually help or I am risking myself for side effects unnecessarily as I also take dilzem cd 120 for hypertension. I know self medication is bad and do not want to take it unless prescribed too. Please just let me know in which situation can the amoeba enter the brain or pose a threat or if in india we don't have this amoeba present in underground water usually as so many people use nal, jet pumps. I had many paid and non paid consultations, I just got a no, it us not caused like that and it is not common in india. Just a bit elaborate reassurance from an experienced doctor will help. And I won't ask queries about this topic again then.

Although there is no specific treatment for the same but I will advise you certain steps u should follow. May be these can help, drinking water before, during and after meals. Eating small bites of food. Chewing thoroughly before swallowing. Avoid talking while eating. Eat slowly. Walk, stand and sit upright for at least 30 minutes after eating. You can also take a homoeo medicine along with nux vomica 30 ( dr. Reckweg ) 1 drop in 1 spoon fresh water twice daily. Report me after 2 monthss
