re: Becoming allergic to poison ivy later in life?

yes, I was in my late 20's and had cuts on my forearms from cutting brush all day at the deer lease. I grabbed a big pile of poison ivy because others were allergic. I had a slight rash for a few days. Not I only get it in on my forearms and no where else.

I have learned to wash my arms really well soon after working with brush or wearing long sleeves help.
