pill-induced esophagitis
Hey everyone, I feel like I’m going through hell right now. On Tuesday I took an amoxicillin pill without much water, and it ended up getting stuck in my esophagus. The next day, it felt like there was a lump stuck in my throat, along with really intense chest pain. I couldn’t lie down without it hurting, walking fast hurt, eating hurt—everything hurt. On top of that, I’ve developed this unbearable cough that’s honestly driving me INSANE. After some tests, my doctor said it’s pill-induced esophagitis.
I started treatment 2 days ago, but the upper chest discomfort and the coughing are still killing me. Has anyone else gone through something like this? How long did it take for your oesophagus to heal? Please send any tips that could help me!!!
