Weening myself off the steroids for the last 2 weeks and have noticed that my chest is tight every night around the same time. It's like I miss a breath. This happened when I first started taking the steroids and lasted a few months. Does any one else suffer with this.

I did too, it went away about 2 months after I stopped the steroids, so prepare yourself for a wait.
I did during withdrawel. Takes a few weeks to settle each time dose is lowed. You might get a few strange symptoms. Steroid withdrawel is the pits but hang on in there. Better to be off them if doc says you can x
