Last summer I got my first dose of poison ivy. It was very minor but itchy around my ankles. This past Saturday Mike and I were at a woods site we've been to 50 times. I was wearing long pants and a tee shirt. I had a slight cut on my knee I got while working. It was like a knife cut 1 inch long but deeper than just a scratch. I guess thats where the ivy got in. My knee swelled up life a golf ball was inside then the blisters and rash came. A couple of little spots on my other leg and 1 spot on the back of 1 arm. The photo is today. Its about 50% better since Monday.To top it off I had a tick sucking blood out of my other arm overnight.... No more woods hunting for me till fall!
