Doxazosin

I have recently been prescribed Doxazosin to help with hypertension. I was concerned because one of the minor side effects is diarrhoea. I already have chronic diarrhoea due to microscopic colitis. However, the opposite seems to be happening. I have been taking 1mg daily for 9 days now. I still get the usual early morning urgency, but that's about it. Anyone else experienced this with Doxazosin?
