Can Prednisone Cause Blurred Vision And Heavy Chest?

Hi, I am taking 25 mg of prednisone a day for my allergies. I started around 4 days ago. Lately I ve been noticing my vision is a bit blurred and my chest feels like its crushing in on itself. Could these symptoms be in any way related to my use of prednisone? I am a 16 year old female.
