I'm highly allergic to poison ivy as well. I've been bedridden with it before.
After years of trying to find something that helped I ran across Domboro. It was the only thing that helps when I get it. http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/dom...od5012-product Oh! And don't get hot and sweaty. It'll make the itching worse. |

I'm very sensitive to it.
however, one of my friends from childhood could wipe it all over and nothing would ever happen.

I would get it really bad as a kid so my mom took me to the doctor and he gave me series of shots to make me immune. It worked for the most part for many years. If I came in contact with it I'd get a bump or two and that would be it. Except a couple years ago I got into some and broke out pretty bad. I ended up buying a product off the internet called All Stop. There's what is basically some emulsifying soap and then some itch cream. I also went to the doc and he put on prednisone and then Hydroxyzine HCL for the itch. I couldn't do the prednisone it was like being on some serious speed.
So get some All Stop or just get some emulsifying soap and calamine lotion.

Not very, I'm allergic to everything but poison ivy. I got into some during a round of golf. I had a little itchy red rash on my bicep that quartizone cream knocked out in two days.

cortisone doesn't do anything but stop the itch. My guess is you got into something else like stinging nettle (itch weed). The rash with poison ivy doesn't go away in 2 days.

My wife is extremely allergic. Take a Benedryl before bed, and it should help it clear up quicker.

I just walked into work and showed my boss. Immediately yelled "Oh my God! You're not working until you see a doctor about that stuff". I looked at her and said "Are you sure it's that bad? This is pretty minor for me".
