Hi Barbra – So sorry to hear that you are dealing with this. This is way beyond my expertise, but I would suggest doing the following right away: (1) getting in to see an experienced ophthalmologist, (2) getting your thyroid levels checked, and (3) sitting down with either your endo or your general practitioner and going through ALL the meds that you are currently taking and those that you have recently discontinued. I’m not familiar with Nortriptyline, but with some other meds, a period of “weaning” is recommended, rather than suddenly stopping. Hope that you can get some answers – and some relief – ASAP!
