When I tell people that prednisone, at one point, made my cheeks so large that I could actually see them out of the corner of my eyes, I don't really think they believe me.
I think they think I'm exaggerating when I say that I couldn't comfortably smile without my skin stretching.
And I am almost positive they think I am a liar when I tell them that sleeping on my back was an impossibility because of the way it stretched the skin on my face.
So, here's proof.
Taken in February of 2009, I was on my way to the full effects of large amounts of steroids.
On. My. Way.
In other words, my face actually got bigger than this.
And for comparison, here I am today.
Still on steroids, but nothing like I was. And it has still taken 2 years to slowly lose the "puff" in my face.
Thank God for the element of time.
