Hey Gary, Get a prescription for Nasonex,it's the only thing I have found to really be effective on Allergies without the drowsey side affects of the over the counter stuff.It's a nasal spray and takes a few days to begin to work but it's not habit forming and really does work.I have suffered with allergies since I was a kid and this shit really works.as for poison Ivy,nothing drys it up like a steroid shot(starts working within about a day)but you shouldn't get more than a couple of shots in a years time.That poison Ivy is as fun as burlap underwear.Tell Todd I will call him tommorow.Take care. -TC.

Poison Ivy& Oak! I don't know about nasal allergies, but I am all to familiar with our favorite poison plants. Ivy,Oak,& Sumac. The active ingredient in these plants is called-Urushiol Oil. Most people have reactions in the 100-nanogram range. A nanogram being a mere billionth of a gram. 1/4 once could put a rash on almost every person on earth. So when you are hooking that infested pole or slashing your way to that pedistal wrapped in the shiny three green leaves, use just about any aerosol antiperspirant(Arid triple extra dry works well). Spray your skin,cloths,& shoes liberally. It's the organoclay and the aluminum chlorohydrate held in suspension that neutralize the Urushiol Oil.

I don't think, I know there is, Chris. The work in TN is locked in and just good enough to keep things rolling until the next one, Dawg. The only thing with Nasonex is you have to go to the doctor, and I never seem to be able to squeeze off enough time to do it, Terry. I think I am about ready to though. Getting really sick of this shit. That's some pretty interesting shit about the poison vines, and here I've been just dealing with it all these years. I never knew you could prevent it instead of just treat it. Even long sleeve shirts do not keep it off my forearms, which is usually the only place I ever react to it. Caladryl clear takes care of it, but smells kind of weird. Later, all. Off to the lake to troll and just kind of take it all in. Real nice scenery out there to be witnessed, instead of this freaking computer screen. Late.

Poison Ivy Cure:
I'm HIGHLY Allergic to the stuff. I get it if I'm in the same zip code. The last time I got it (a month ago) it cost me a $300 Emergency Room visit, $250 Emergency Room Doctor's Bill, a steroid shot, and a $25 steroid perception. May I also say that that DAMN shot hurt worse than being punched in the arm by Hulk Hogan.
Well I just got it again on my forearm. I'd heard of a ole' time southern cure for it. Bleach. So I bought a $0.69 gallon jug of Clorox on Friday after work, I've been pouring it on the effected area all weekend. It's not spread and is drying up. No it don't feel good. Yes it will probably scare, but who of us don't have plenty of pole scares on our arms anyway. It might seem like an uncivilized cure, but just remember penicillin is made from mold.

Wow oh wow Im not even going to comment on that one Doug. I'd like to but I don't want to be the one that pisses off certain supervisors who stab they're friends in the back to get ahead.
