I've been on Prednisone for about a month now and have experienced the racing heart. I've been thru so much lately and hope we can help each other here....for the asthma and other reactive friends - try an ALCAT test. This will tell you what foods/meds you have an intolerance to. They send you a kit and you may be surprised what happens to your body when you consume something that your body doesn't like. They have also just given me a script for Methotrexate because my RA numbers are high...I've done my research and so far am refusing to consume that toxic drug. Has anyone tried Minocycline (or other drugs in the cycline family) for joint pain, RA??? I hear it works and at least those side effects aren't deadly.

Don't start the Methotrexate and especially higher Prednisone dosages for RA. I was told I had severe went through hell with all the meds and finally cured myself simply by changing everything in my diet. Dr's can't believe it, people who know me can't believe it. 4+ years ago I used nothing but a walker and cane to get around last night I squatted for 400lbs. Don't give up. Stay away from anything that will make you sicker and yes take that test.

Yes I tried the Minocycline and like you have heard people have good luck with it. It's used quite often as you probably know for people with Leaky Gut. However do you want to go through life on an antibiotic?? I sure didn't.
