How To Treat Shortness Of Breath, Elevated BP And Anxiety That Began After Taking Cipro For Bladder Infection?

I experienced a kidney stone on Saturday morning and as precaution, went to the doctor on Monday morning to check for a possible bladder infection. Test showed only a trace of blood and infection. Was prescribed Cipro. After taking the first 3, I am very fatigued and am having some shortness of breath along with elevated blood pressure and nervousness. I called the doctor and asked her to change the antibiotic. How long will it take the Cipro to leave my system?
