I had the "moon face" For me, after my body adjusted to the pred., and it really never fully adjusts, but it gets used to it somewhat, I started to lose a few pounds here and there and my face looked a little better. It depends how many mg. a day u r on it. I was on it for 4 yrs. and have been off of it for 5 months. It's getter smaller since I've lost more weight. It makes u hungry and nervous and u eat because of both. It's hard to lose any weight, I know. It seemed my brain worked overtime while my body was so sluggish, but yet I couldn't sleep. It's all part of the pred. I could never seem to get interested in anything. Even now, I'm just starting to get interested in things I used to like, still slow going, but I notice a difference. Try excercising. it was extremely boring to me, but I tried. Couldn't concentrate unless I could use my bike in front of the tv. I promise, it does get better. I wish we didn't ever have to take pred., it causes such heartache in so many areas of our lives. It does wonders for so many reasons but the side effects r so horrible. Take care and God Bless u.
