Re: poison ivy question

Holli, try to find Technu which is a lotion that you use several times a day to wash off the oils and relieve the itch, if you get it. Their instructions say to use even before any symptoms if you think you touched the plant.

I was weeding.. and yes it was Poison Ivy. Not sure how sensitive I am.. I
have psoriasis, so not sure how it will react, thought it only caused
problems when it is red.

but it is better than dh or ds getting it.

When you say "run across", did you come in physical contact with it?
Were you sure it was poison ivy? What is your sensitivity to this plant?
