Heart palpitations

[Whitespot]

Has anyone ever had issues with increased heart rates or palpitations when weening off of prednisone?

I had problems with palpitations the whole time I was on the horrid stuff. You might ask your doctor about anti-anxiety medications. I seem to remember getting a little relief from them, but the racing heart didn't really go away until I was off the medication. It's scary when your heart gets out of sync. Hang in there.
