Hmm, well according to this thread on the UI forums, you need to do:
Code:
/cast Presence of Mind
/script SpellStopCasting();
/script UseInventoryItem(GetInventorySlotInfo("Trinket1Slot"));
/cast Frostbolt(Rank 10);
Can you try that and see if it works?

Yeah, that situation (where you pressed your heal key again at 3.5s, causing Fastcast to cancel the current spell) could definitely ruin your day, although hopefully that will be a very rare occurrence.

If you are worried, turn off Fastcast when you are casting those long heals and they most definitely positively must have them land (or don't spam your slow healing spells ). You can also try putting long casting spells like this into a macro (for healers, perhaps with an announce so that other healers or your target knows its coming) which should prevent Fastcast from allowing it to be interrupted by a second press of the same macro.
