I am in the same boat. I was in the poison ivy on Aug 28 and started breaking out the next day. I've had a cortisone shot and have taken two 6-day doses of prednisone. I'm still breaking out in new areas that were not exposed to the poison ivy. I wonder if it has turned into hives? I itch worse now than I did in the beginning. I'm willing to try almost anything. Any suggestions? |
