Now that I'm at a lower dose (11.25mg), the side effects of the Pred have lessened. I was getting such periods of a fast heartbeat at times and seeing the pulsations visually. I'd lay down and try to slow my breathing, I was and still am drinking more water than usual. It will get better, I promise. Just be patient and do go slowly.
I called this morning and found my doctor had filled 1mg Pred hahaha. With the directions to take 2 per day. oi.
I'll get it filled and round it off to 11mg daily (I'm sure he meant 12). Hang in there.
