I've been on 60 mg of prednisone since september when they diagnosed me with cryoglobulinemia. At the end of October I started getting (what my ENT told me) was moon face. It seems like my face keeps getting more full. My coworkers like the fullness in my face. Im starting to taper the amounts of prednisone every two weeks now. Im at 50 until next week. At least my joints don't hurt. I just wish my face didnt hurt at times. Plus it does affect my vision when my cheeks get too puffy. i look at it as Im just glad Im here and not the only one with this.

I had the same issues and my friends thought I looked better with a fuller face. As I have tapered the prednisone, the moon face has disappeared and my wrinkles came back! I do feel more like myself now. Hang in there and best of luck to you.
