I have poison ivy now from pulling weeds the other day... WTF. This past month can't get any better. At least it isn't as bad as when I usually get it. I have to get steroid shots because of the massive amount of swelling if I get a bad case. Highly allergic.

Poison Ivy sucks. I got it pretty bad once and I had to get shots too. My face was all puffed up...it wasn't a pretty site.

I am sorry, I must be using your luck.

I knew it wasn't my own, but I couldn't turn it down.

Ack! Cut that out!

Get something called Domeboro from a pharmacy. It is a powder or tab. Make a solution with it, and apply it to the area. No doubt you will need your flavor of steroid, but that will probably make it feel better

Edit- there is a steroid- methylprednisolone- that docs often prescribe orally. Shots arent always needed

I haven't had PI in about 8 years, but I remember the Doc saying something oral wasn't possible because I was always so bad when I came in. I would be COVERED from head to toe and be in immense pain.
