Maybe: Talk with your doctor. The shortness of breath and other symptoms could possibly be related to the medication. There are so many blood pressure medications available today; find one that works for you without side-effects.

Beta blocker: Beta blockers like metoprolol can cause dry eye, increase in latent asthma and slow heart rate as well as fatigue, stuffy nose and sontime nighrmares. See the doctor that prescribed this for altenative treatment.
