Default RE: Are you allergic to poison ivy?

Growing up I actually crawled thrugh it as a 2 year old, sat in some a dozen times and ran through it countless times and never, ever got even an itch.

When I turned 18 I was mowing my folks pasture and chopped some up next to a tree. I was covered from head t toe in the crap and now I get it easy.. We don't havet oo much out here, or at least I have been lucky enough not tog et it... Some folks are more sensative than others to the ivy jsut like some people get stung by a bee and blow up while othes barely have a reaction at all..

My mom gets it bad al the time but once she had oak so bad that she had to get steroid treatments for it... Sounded just awful, before my time.
