Thread: !@_$(*& Poison Ivy!!!!

    Our lake house has a nice view out the front windows of the lake, but the guy across the street has let the crap along his fenceline grow like eight feet tall.
    So the last two weekends me and my guys have been clearing it out, ended up with around ten pickup loads of stuff we dumped at the back of my property. Sunday I rented a chipper and we reduced the junk to a nice pile of mulch. Uh, there was just a little bit of poison ivy in the stuff we cut down.
    Unfortunately, me, the poison ivy sissy, has developed a systemic reaction to the exposure and I'm effing covered with the stuff. I went to the doctor today and got a methylprednisalone "dose pak", a steriod deal that will knock it down in a few days.
    CRAP!!! I'm itching like crazy and I'm pizzed because I didn't even expose myself that much. Once it enters your bloodstream it happily deposits toxins all over your body and the misery commences.
    Grrrrr!!!

    Already pursuing that course of treatment. If it doesn't help, I have two large 6 volt batteries I will use to apply high amperage current to the affected areas.

    It won't stop itching, but you won't mind so much.
    Forget about the 6-volts (unless you are going golfing)....two 12 volts will work better.

    Make sure to take the steroids before drinking. Nothing like working the sh*t out of your liver with steroids and then washing it all down with some alcohol to take your already being over worked liver and make it work just a little more.
