I have a Moon Face from 25+Yrs of being on Predisilone Steroids

Hi ,

When Im on oral steroids it.happens to me as on them alot .My consultant added flixotide to all my other stuff as daily flixotide and the steroid in Seritide should help keep me off oral steroids.

Just hope 1500 of inhaled steroids don't cause weigh gain or moon face xxx

I have 8 puffs of seretide a day (250 dose) for nearly 18 months now. I've only noticed moonface when on oral steroids for a while.
