I have a friend who had peanut allergies. When he react, he usually get's swollen aroud his face, has a hard time breathing, and sometimes he feels nauseos. Sharp stomach pains just don't sound like a reaction to peanuts.

I'd say it's time to take another visit to your doctor. But that's just my opinion.

Peanuts are the top cause of severe, food-caused allergic reactions. An allergic to peanuts occurs when the immune system targets a harmless substance (peanut protein) and identifies it as harmful. The body then produces antibodies specific to the food and releases chemicals, including histamine. There are three main categories of peanut allergy symptoms: skin (hives, eczema, red and swollen mouth); gastrointestinal tract (stomach cramps, diarrhea, vomiting); and respiratory (itchy, watery nose, sneezing, and symptoms associated with asthma, like coughing and wheezing). Anaphylaxis, is the type of sudden, severe allergic reaction that can be fatal, such a reaction involves different parts of the body (skin, respiratory tract, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal systems). The symptoms are itchiness, a metallic taste in the mouth, tingling, hives, swelling in the mouth and throat and asthma. Epinephrine is a drug used to treat anaphylaxis and should be used immediately when a reaction occurs or is thought to occur. Peanut allergy sufferers should wear medical alert tags and carry an Epi pen at all times. The reaction could be so swift that the medication dose should be administered prior to emergency responders arriving at the scene.

okay so last summer i had my really first allergic reaction to peanuts... i ate a cashew during a sleepover at my cousins house... and then we decided to go play on the trampoline outside at night. i could feel my throat closing and had started rubbing my eyes cuz they had started to become really itchy and my cousins had noticed my voice becoming really weird like i had breathed in helium but i didnt so i went inside and asked my aunt if she had any allergy pills she got me claritin but it wasnt working fast enough so i then my eyes were extremely bloodshot only they were all red not red vein the whole whites of my eye. about 5 minutes later my breathing was becoming really shallow so i asked my aunt about which coincidentally she is a nurse and took me to the emergency room. in that whole course of time it was about 20 minutes since i ate 1 little cashew so now i have an epipen and even stronger allergy pills...
hope my symptoms help... if this helps at all either it was an acute allergic reaction.
