NiteNinja00 NiteNinja00 Member Registered: 01/14/03 Posts: 1027 Loc: Indianapolis	I have heard this term a few times. The patient is on chronic steroids. In the physical exam he states "Patient has a steroid s/l facey or fasie" I cannot find a listing for this in my Stedman's or a reliable hit online. Any help would be appreciated. He is definitely saying "facie" singular and not "facies" plural. Is this an actual term?

It bet Ann hit it on the head, and the jerk thought he was showing off how he could pronounce French correctly, LOL.
