Hi Nuria,   It sounds like you are having a time. I have some links to information you might find helpful. There is a great deal of information here about GERD as well as food allergies, in fact there have been some really good shareposts and conversations about food allergies that I can direct you to. This information will come in handy when it's time to speak to your doctor. The information here will help you ask all the right questions so that you can better manage your care. Although this information is helpful, it should never take the place of your doctor's sound advice.   You can read about GERD here in the overview and you can check your symptoms here in the symptoms database. Since you have seen your doctor and he has prescribed medication for GERD, you can read about most medications here in the drugs database. Specifically you can read about Omeprazol (generic for Prilosec) here.  You can also research treatments available and alternatives here in the treatments database.   Now the food allergies. Back in November 2007, a member named Laurie in the www.MyAllergyNetwork.com (a sister site of Acid Reflux Connection) posted a sharepost about having an allergy to garlic. There are 115 responses from people who not only have allergies to garlic, but 100 other things and there are lots of suggestions, recipes and food listings to help you know what to stay away from. You can read the entire posting here. But also check out postings from Ladyisis here. Ladyisis has had acid reflux and multiple other complications. She also has a wonderful attitude and has done a great deal of research and has some ideas for getting around some of the issues.   I hope this information helps. Please stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!Vicki M
