> [Flomax] was actually the first one I tried, when I was on protriptyline and was having such extreme difficulties. It works but is a $50 copay under my current insurance. Doxazosin is only a $10 copay and actually has fewer side effects for me (actually, none that I can even detect).

I had virtually total urinary retention when I tried desipramine (Reboxetine also), even at an extremely low dose. But my doctor told me it was the tricyclic least likely to cause cholinergic problems, so we didn't bother trying any others. Now you're saying its the most likely. I wonder if I gave up on tricyclics unnecessarily.
