Yes, you should. Just because (we hope) Harry's problems with the dosage caused no permanent damage, I would have expected the vet to offer at least a "break" on your bills since the tests turned out to be, ultimately, unnecessary.
For some bizarre reason, I have always been able to demand fair treatment when time and money have been expended on my part due to another service provider's mistake. i even complained about a Wendy's that opened up near me at which I had a most unpleasant experience. I received a very nice aplogetic letter and a couple of coupons.
If you feel more comfortable about it, you could write the vet a note (maybe with your next statement from their office?) asking for some compensation for your money, worry, and Harry's wellbeing.
Sorry you feel mad at yourself over this. Perhaps you could redirect your anger towards the vet.
take care,
