sounds like you really need to get a hold of your doctor and at the minimum get your blood pressure checked. is your doctor a neurologist?. you can also post your question here, if you do include all the other drugs you are taking and dosages:

just a non-professional opinion but i would think you could drop back to the previous dosage.
just curious, how much are you taking/day?
