i contracted poison ivy in Sept 2003, stupidly squatting over a cat hole in Colorado wilderness. Needless to say the rash was in some very terrible, sensitive areas.  By the time I got back to civilization it had been about a week.  The rash spread over 90% if my body.  I was in the hospital with terrible reaction to the rash and the steriods.  It took aobut 4-5 weeks and it seemed to be gone.  My QUESTION is, about once a month, or if I get extremely sweaty the rash seems to come back-there is no discoloration, but the itch is the same.  Help!!! This is horrible.
