Re: Question for Barb or Phil

[Guest guest]

I hear people say you can get a moon face on HC meds. I read the book front to

back " Safe Uses of Cortisol " never one word about this moon face and it never

happened to me. Coming off HC meds you need to do this slow so you don't go

into Adrenal Crisis read #39 in this FAQ's how to do this.

http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/adrenal-info/faq/

But I never took to much HC meds here is a link I found it states one gets this

moon face from taking to much HC meds or the wrong kind.

puffy face is not the same like moon.

puffy is from hypothyroid, moon from too much cortisol.

Good Point what I am trying to tell him is he dose not have a moon face from HC

meds he is not on enough to do this so it well might be Thyroid or holding water

from TRT.

Great pix, but still hard to tell the difference if someone is overweight!

, since you said you had a buffalo hump, I'd go with high cortisol.

If you go to Wal-Mart, you will see both types of face everywhere!
