Title: it appears i have poision ivy. Post by: birdymaker on June 30, 2008, 12:21:02 PM problem is, there is no poison ivy around. started with a small bump in between my fingers. started spreading and then spread to the adjoining finger then one spot on the forearm of the opposite arm. i don't go anywhere, i mean nowhere, other than the occasional trip to the store so this is somewhat bewildering.
i have my doubts that it actually is poison ivy because i am highly allergic. every time i have been in contact with it in the past, i wake up the next day with my face swelled shut and have to go to the hospital. so i am at a loss. :-\ Title: Re: it appears i have poision ivy.

Or maybe you brushed up against some good ol' fashioned itch weed? Title: Re: it appears i have poision ivy. Post by: Aske on July 01, 2008, 08:32:37 AM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urushiol
wore widespread than just poison ivy. also remains active for many years after plant 'dies'. any chance you contacted another potential source? Title: Re: it appears i have poision ivy. Post by: birdymaker on July 01, 2008, 09:32:05 AM just about has to be something in one of my flower beds. i got 5 yards of topsoil in the spring. where i planted grass i just used lawn weed killer. but the flower beds that i put some in i have been weeding by hand.
