Happily, they had excellent drugs.

gridloreYesterday was my upper GI endoscopy. I had been experiencing some pain when swallowing, and the most recent PET scan showed some oddities in my throat and lungs. So my doctors decided to see what was going on in my throat. The hardest part of this was getting an IV started. Once they started the sedatives, I was gone. I don't remember anything. I don't remember getting dressed, or leaving the hospital. Good drugs.
But for once the problem was clear from the start. I have Candida esophagitis. This yeast infection isn't uncommon in people who use steroid-based inhalers. Now have new meds to deal with it.
