Could you believe.....

I have poison SOMETHING!! The Dr coulsn't tell me if it was Ivy, Sumac, or Oak....I have NO idea how I get it either. It's on the back of my legs, my LOWER BACK and my foot!! The meds the DR gave me make me an invalid, the cream does nothing and I am SO itchy! Sorry for venting girls...but I just needed to throw a temper tantrum LOL

Oh that suuuuucks. My friend just had it and it wasn't pleasant. you probably had theroils on your hand and scratched your back, leg and foot. HOpe it clears soon! I am allergic to a few chemicals, fabrics, etc and I know what it's like to have itchy skin that doesn't respond to ANYTHING.

Would a hot shower or bath help? Apparently, it confuses your nerves and prevents them from making you itchy.

Just to offer some POTENTIAL insight - if it resembles multiple insect bites, I had the same thing this summer and it was from a caterpillar. I was in the park and a caterpillar was crawling along my leg as I was lying down and reading; the hairs give you a poison ivy type rash.

In either case, if you take antihistamine in both pill and cream form it should make the whole thing die down. It took me about 3 days to alleviate the rash.
