Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic!
Esophagitis usually causes symptoms like painful swallowing. Reflux can cause symptoms like heartburn and belching.
Bloating, flatulence and abdominal spasm after sex are not related it.
You have not mentioned your age and whether you are a diabetic.
Gastroparesis ( diabetes is one of the causes) can cause these symptoms. But abdominal spasm after sex is not related to it and it could be due to exertion.

Endoscopy is very well diagnostic of esophagitis.It is easy it to diagnose this on endoscopy and no further test is needed.
