Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hi
Welcome to HCM.
You have been started on steroidal therapy for your multifocal Choroiditis, which will have all the above mentioned side effects. Once you taper your dosage and stop your tablets, then the above mentioned symptoms will fade away in no time.

To reduce the stomach pain you can add an antacid tablet like Ranitidine with each dosage of Wysolone.
If you are intolerable even with this, then consult your eye doctor again to find out whether any Peri ocular steroid injection is possible.

Depending on the extent of your Choroiditis ,it's the concerned ophthalmologist's decision on whether oral/ injectable steroid is required. If you can bear a short term Therapy of Wysolone with reversible side effects, this wonderful drug can help you for a faster recovery.
Hope this helps. Take care.
