I started to lose the "buffalo hump" about 20 mg too.

It was a gradual thing, but I guess around 15-10mg. Also lost 13cm from my waist :)
Hi I started, this time, at 80 down to 7.5 the moon face started to go when I got to 10 but the weight i gained is still here. I'm working on getting rid of it but it seems like a very slow process. Good luck!

Well, I'm about to find out if going back up to 20mg. will bring back my moon face. My bloodwork this week showed my inflammation level has gone up and the doc wants me to up the pred from the 7mg. I've been on. I've had vertigo a couple of times and a lot of sinus and ear pressure, plus a CT scan just showed my sinuses to be blocked and barely draining. Haven't actually talked to the doc about any of this but the pred goes up to 20 starting tomorrow. I'll know more next week when I see the doc, and will see the ENT the following week..... will let you all know what happens.
Thanks.... I won't hijack the thread by talking about my recent issue here. I hope your moon face goes away at the higher end of the range! And I don't remember personally welcoming you to the forum, so, welcome to the forum! It is the best place to be if we have to have Wegener's.
