You have my utmost sympathy and prayers too.<br /><br />We've dealt with it before and found that aloe vera gel (esp. the kind that has a little novacaine) is helpful to relieve the horrible itching. It also helps to keep the gel in the fridge and apply it cold. It's handy for sunburn too.<br /><br />Hope you're better soon.Diana Moses Botkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254521493118166524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34529982.post-8536328372148314562009-04-24T06:55:00.000-07:002009-04-24T06:55:00.000-07:00Carol,

Wet the infected area and rub plain table salt on it, this will not only relieve the victim but also stop further spread. Rub the inner side of a banana peel on the rash. This will help you to relieve itching. Place the infected area under running water. This will wash away histamines which cause itching of skin. Pour 3 cups of oats into warm water and soak the infected area into it. Simultaneously rub the affected area. Doing this will relieve you of itching. Mix 1/4 cup of bleach with 3/4 cup of warm water and apply to the affected area using a washcloth. This will kill the poison within 2 to 3 days. Apply aloe vera juice over the affected area, this will cool and provide instant relief.<br /><br />Hope you get better soon!Peter Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00384129459052696705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34529982.post-50657496014625073722009-04-22T21:20:00.000-07:002009-04-22T21:20:00.000-07:00My sympathies!

Sorry to hear your suffering from the po...Hi Carol,<br />Sorry to hear your suffering from the poison ivy. I've done some google search and found the following advice from FamilyDoctor.org:<br /><br /> ...<br /><br />How is poison ivy treated?<br /><br />Once a rash starts to develop, there are several over-the-counter medications you can use to relieve the itching, including:<br /><br /> * Hydrocortisone creams (brand name: Cortizone-10)<br /> * Calamine lotion<br /> * Antihistamine tablets (one brand name: Benadryl)<br /> * Oatmeal baths<br /><br />You should call your doctor if:<br /><br /> * You have fever over 100 degrees<br /> * The rash covers large areas of your body<br /> * The rash is in your eyes, mouth or on your genital area<br /> * There is pus coming from the blisters<br /> * The rash does not get better after a few days<br /><br /> ...<br /><br />Hope this would help your situation.<br />By the way, I love your apple. Look so real - actually better than real with your wonderful strokes.<br />Thank you for posting such masterpieces everyday.Peter Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00384129459052696705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34529982.post-31516264660799533092009-04-22T20:39:00.000-07:002009-04-22T20:39:00.000-07:00Your perfect expression of brilliance shines throu...Your perfect expression of brilliance shines through in this painting.

Get thee to a health food store and buy some NatraBio brand homeopathic drops called Rhus Toxicodendron (Not sure about spelling there). It's the only thing that has ever worked for me and it seems to keep me from getting as often or as bad over time. You just use it for a few days and PI should subside.
