Prednisolone & Chest Pain

I've been on Pred for 7+ Years and can't seem to get off it due to severe chest pain whenever I go under 5.5mg. Sometimes I worry that it's all in my head but I honestly don't think it is. I was diagnosed with pericarditis early in 2018 but since they think it's gone (Ultra sounds and all agree)

Has anyone else had this issue? What did you find help? Any detailed advice is welcome!

Thankyou in advance

Does Anyone Have Blood In Their Urine All The Time?
