Medical Advice

I have finally been diagnosed with IBS after dealing with it for years. I was instructed to follow the FODMAP elimination diet for 6 weeks and slowly add foods back in, and prescribed nortriptyline (25 mg for 10 days, increase to 50 thereafter). I have Ocular Hypertension (borderline glaucoma) and would love to know that others with Ocular Hypertension have been able to take this medication without negative consequences.Is anyone who has taken Nortriptyline also diagnosed w/ ocular hypertension?
