I get it, but not bad like some people do.

Alcohol kicks it's arse.

Zanfel is the best. It washes the oil off your skin, and kills the itching. Only thing besides steroid shot that works. It also stops it from spreading.

I get poison ivy only in the tender spots. Back when I deer hunted a lot I would climb trees in the dark, in the winter you just have vines and no leaves.....I would get the poison on my hands then scratch my eyes and take a piss. A couple time I had perfect thumb prints of poison ivy on my unit...and eyes swollen shut.

The nurse got to looking forward to me coming in I kept telling him to give up.

When i was around 13 we burned firewood with it originally on it. Got it from head to toe. Was one visit from getting iced down in the hospital. One eye was shut and the other very close. Makes the flu look like a pssy, or anything else.

There was some clear menthol type gel at one point on the market..it dried it up so fast it would leave scars.

It's off the market, prolly had some mustard gas in it.

I go straight to the Dr. now, shot and dose pack. It ain't worth fighting it.
