Monday evening now. Had a pretty good day. Saw my doctor this morning, who laid to rest some of the fears that surfaced at the ER--without an endoscopy, no-one knows the real situation with my esophagitis.
He outlined some of the potential causes and recommended a bland menu of food and drink items to consume for the time being. That's ok with me, as I can't face consuming much anyway. Case in point: today, I've had a waffle, an egg, and about 5 ounces of water. The thimble of gatorade I knocked back this evening felt like a party in my mouth.
Other than general pain, the biggest issue is the tiredness. I've taken a nap the last two afternoons and am pretty much knackered by 8pm.
Off to the specialist tomorrow for a check-in, with an endoscopy to be scheduled (in my mind) ASAP.
Kelly has been wonderful; if anyone deserves unlimited flowers, it's her.

Mick - it's pretty clear to me that you don't need medicine. What you need is some bourbon to just incinerate whatever is in your throat. Let me know if you want Dr. Schimmel to make a housecall. I will bring several types of bourbon and my lawyer.
