for about three years now I have had a lots of abdominal pain in my left and right ribs, and stomach sometime just do not feel like it should .
and I had acid reflux , so the doctor want me to take the endoscopy for a long time, but I just would not take it, but the nexium stop working, and all of my pain would go and come , so I took the endoscopy this two weeks ago and the results was.
1.Mild distal esophagitis with small areas of whitish exudates suspicious for Candida esophagitis.
2. Small hiatal hernia.
3. Mild gastritis at distal stomach.
The biopsies diagnosis was
Benign squamous and glandular cells
Fungal hyphae associated with Candide .
the doctor gave me fluconazole 100mg. to take for 10 days.
can anyone tell me What is CANDIDA I have not ever heard of anything like that.
thank for reply.

Candida is yeast... You have a yeast infection in your esophagus. The medication the doctor prescribed should take care of it.
The gastritis at the distal end of the stomach is the end that attaches to your intestines, not the end that attaches to your esophagus. It could be caused by lots of things. Mine was caused by reflux of bile from the intestines into the stomach, but they noted the presence of bile in the stomach along with the gastritis.
The benign squamous and glandular cells means that there's nothing wrong with those cells.
