Poison Ivy, Oak & Sumac
I manage to get in one of them last weekend when I was weeding and have been miserable ever since. Even taking oral cortisone I am still broke out and itchy. To top it off I really need to weed around my Bottlebrush which I am also allergic too.
That stuff is the pits! I have scars from the boils poison oak causes. I found out one thing a few years ago...never EVER weedwhack poison oak. You inhale the sap and get it in your nose & throat, too. Nasty. Calamine lotion and oatmeal baths, hang in there!
