Poison Ivy - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

I am not allergic to Poison Ivy - seriously - I'm not.

BUT I am allergic to something in my room apparently. I am covered in a rash!!! very similar to poison ivy. I went to the doctor and she agreed it was not poison ivy because of where the rash is and how intense it is in certain places.

I am miserable.

Physically I feel like I have taken a Benadryl even though I have not because it itches so much it wears me down.

And I forgot my "Cream" at home. So I am sitting in class wanting to itch SO BAD!!!!

I am going crazy.

any suggestions? have you guys ever had this?

Whats the rash look like?

**exeftWabreava** · 06-22-2010, 06:47 PM

I have had it a couple of times

One time I believe some stuff was put in the washer with my clothes

When you get home try an Aveno bath and see if that helps

Both times I got it I had to get some decent prescription cream to get it to go away. Once I did that it got better pretty quickly

I feel your pain kiddo. I am allergic to poison ivy. I used to get it as a kid all the time and it will drive you crazy

the ivy would start out like a misquito bite. Only the blisters had fluid in them. miserable stuff.

**uncoodync** · 06-22-2010, 06:48 PM

it's raised and red and oozing. it's in lines and blotches. Some parts are tough and dried up now that I have been dousing myself in Caladryl.

I have been applying this Rx Cortizone. It's helping, but the Caladryl pink was so attractive....

It's mostly on my stomach and my boob, but a bit on my knee and crease of my elbow. Oh! And some on my forehead OF COURSE.

Aveeno bath! you're a genius!!!

I even have the oatmeal at home! yay!

Man I can't wait to get home...

omg I want to sscrape off my skin!!!

all day I feel like I want to just slip into a coma so I will stop itching!!!!

**Mehntswx** · 06-24-2010, 02:43 AM

Could it be your thyroid medicine? It's pretty rare that it would cause a reaction but it's not unheard of.

**suingincentix** · 06-24-2010, 02:53 AM

really? even like months after I started it?

**Rupeviv** · 06-24-2010, 02:57 AM

It is a contact dermititis. Check for anything new like a different detergent. Benadryl orally but use something else topically. Oatmeal baths are good.

It can take awhile for a reaction to build up. But Fred might be on to something too. Dominic has had less severe reactions (just red bumps) to detergents, new clothes, soap, stuff like that.

**jurhoonee** · 06-24-2010, 04:03 AM

you could go to the pharmacy and see if they have anything else they recommend.

I only got relief when I put on some valisone which is prescription though

**CULTDIAMONDS** · 06-24-2010, 04:09 AM

Hope you feel better soon and don't last long ..

When I read that I dunno why but Vaseline popped into my head. I'm like... why the hell would anyone need a prescription for Viener Schlider? Then I saw who wrote it.

What the hell is Viener Schlider?

What the hell is Viener Schlider?

Viener = wiener
Schlider = slippery stuff

Viener Schlider = Grease for the dick.

These are pictures off the net, but this is what it looks like:

**Edifsdubs** · 06-26-2010, 01:20 AM

no sorry dreamer - no shingles or scabies.

it's cropping up in new places, but is reacting to the cortizone and caladryl. most the old places are healing - they're just dry and itchy now.

the new places are being doused with cream so they don't get worse...

does it make sense that itching all day makes me tired?
