What Causes Metallic Taste In Mouth When On Prednisone?

I just finished a 12 day round of prednisone, decreasing until yesterday when my last dose was 10mg. Since then I have been anxious and shaking all over. I cannot sleep. I also have an awful metallic taste in my mouth. How long will these symptoms last and is there any way to help the trembling/shaking all over?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such symptoms may not be due to steroid but this could be nonspecific and this is nothing to worry this would be fine soon, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
