My mother is allergic to nuts and has just ate a ball of monkey nuts.
She thought she was only allergic to Peanuts so thats why she ate the Monkey nuts.
Now she has really bad stomach cramps and can't evan move.
What should she do? Is there anything I can give her like food or medicine that will help stop her stomach cramps??

what type of reaction did she have before to the peanuts? If there was anything to do with her airway ie, hives all over, throat swelling, tongue enlargement, difficulty breathing or anxiety then she should definitely go see a doctor. In those instances Intravenous medication intervention is required because it absorbs into your system faster than the irritant itself. The will probably give Benadryll and Epinephrine but don't feel bad and think it is something you could have avoided and treated at home—the emergency room just makes it look simple.
Again, Serious reaction in the past=Emergency Room,
Mild reaction before=time to wait and see
Post more and keep us informed...Good Luck!

Call for an ambulance. If she goes into anaphylactic shock it may kill her.

Just massage her where the cramp is happening.
If that doesn't work, get her to the emergency room asap.

Take her to the ER or doctor as soon as possible or call into her doctor for advice. With any nut allergy, it's better to be safe than sorry. I just looked up monkey nuts and they are the pod of a peanut vine. If you have an epipen use it; if not get her to the ER asap. Either way ER now!!!
