i was prescribed prednisone 5 mg 2x a day for 5 days for a sinus infection. i was only able to take it for 3 days. ever since ive had highblood pressure one day palpitation anxiousness . anxiety . i can barely sleep some nights with thoughts of what is wrong with me when i feel anxious. spoke to my doctor over the phone and she told me there is no way the short term and low dose is doing this. This started right after im convinced it is the prednisone that messed me up.
