<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I was diagnosed with a yeast infection in my esophagus 2 weeks ago. The GI put me on medication but did not have me change my diet in any way with the exception of no alcohol (not that I would want to drink feeling like I do) I was starting to feel better but came down with a cold on Sunday and now my throat is killing me. (This was the prevailing symptom that brought me into the GI to begin with). I also have GERD and I am taking medication for GERD. I'm not sure if it is the cold or the fact that I have still been eating carbs and sugar and this is why I seem to have relapsed. I don't think it is the GERD. I go back to the doctor next week. I'm just wondering if anyone ever had this and how they were treated and also how long did it take for the infection to go away. The doctor said that most people who get this type of infection are on inhaled steroids or are having chemo which is not the case for me, and they are puzzled as to how this came about. I am miserable. *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the CELIAC List*
