    If you look up the negative effects of doxazosin they are breathlessness and tiredness, the blurb states that it should settle in a few weeks or month or two, if not tell the doctor. Also it warns that taken along with your former blood pressure medication your pressure can fall too low so be aware of this please.

    Having low blood pressure I have never been on any pressure meds but it is in my nature to research everything prescribed and decide for myself, rightly or wrongly whether I take it or not, I am in a country where there is a huge tendency to over prescribe.

    Hope you can sort this out and feel better soon.
