I contacted Poison Ivy one week ago at my husbands hunting land.I Have used calamine,caladryl,cortizone,and I am now seriously weighing the options of removing my legs. I Cannot believe that a plant could cause people to do such crazy things such as apply bleach, while screaming at the top of your lungs, in a scalding hot bath. Last night alone I sat in a hot tub of aveeno which helped for a couple of hours.Today I am doing the clorox bit. It burns so bad,at this point scarring is mild!!
