Please let us know why are you taking pedisone and since how long you have been taking it. You mentioned about swollen face. Is it in the early morning or throughout the day. If its in the morning, please check your renal functions.
Regarding cloudy chest x-ray-it may be due to lung infection-Pneumonia.
