I have the exact problem ! I have been actively avoiding garlic for about 15 years now, after making the connection between a horrible taste in my mouth for hours and hours after eating garlic (usually only the cloves though, powder didn't seem to have the same effect). But my husband loves garlic, so tonight I made sautéed mushrooms with LOTS of garlic for him and sucked it up and ate some myself, albeit only a few, so I wouldn't seem like a baby. At this moment it is 2:49 AM and I have been awake for over 2 hours with stomach cramps, heartburn, have had 2 BM''s (in the middle of the night!!) and rapid breating and elevated heart rate. I no longer need to doubt myself. Garlic and I DO NOT get along! While I am sorry there seem to be so many people like me, I am relieved that it is something I can identify. Thank you!
