Candida esophagitis?: Ask your doctor (preferably the GI doc who did the endoscopy) about the possibility of a candida (yeast) infection of your esophagus. Yeast overgrowth and infection can be triggered by broad spectrum antibiotics like ciprofloxacin. This should have been obvious by endoscopy, but still something to ask about. Maybe a trial of anti-yeast treatment like nystatin or fluconazole?
