Hi everyone,
I am currently on prednisone to control my flare-ups. I've been trying to cut down but when I go below 25mg I seem to flare up again. (I've only been on it a couple of weeks currently).
I'm just wondering, how long will it be before I end up with a swollen face? Will I get a swollen face at these levels? I'm thinking I will try and cut down really slowly (just a couple of mgs at a time to wean myself off). I know its a silly fear, but I have to face my whole university everyday and would prefer to do that still looking normal.
If anyone has any advice that would be awesome.
