    Nobody mentioned taking benadryl to keep the rash down but it helps.

    It does sound like you may have a bad enough case to benefit from going to the doctor.

    somebody said "don't you recognize what it looks like?" which is fine when the leaves are on, but once fall hits and the leaves fall off poison oak can be hard to spot.

    You've seen my truck parked at Safeway? Lol feel free to say hi next time. I'm the angry guy in the Deli department hating his job counting down the days until he can transfer schools. [​IMG]

    The observatory at the El Dorado center? That's cool. I still haven't taken the time to visit it yet. I've heard it's actually really neat what you can see.

    Haha, sorry Jay but that's funny...and really sucks :(

    Still haven't trifled with poison oak *knock on wood*. Luckily I have pants and boots on every time I'm trampling through it or something.

    If you worked at HH, you should be intimately familiar with that stuff.

    Tecnu extreme scrub works wonders, but mostly to stop the spread and to prevent it in the first place, so probably won't work now for you, Jay.
    Definitely get the shot of cortisone or get a prescription for prednisone. My girlfriend and I are both hypersensitive but she's exposed to it almost daily because of where she lives and her dogs run around in it so she uses tecnu scrub daily.

    Never seen that. Thanks!

    One of the very best things you can do if you think you've been exposed is go home, take all of your clothes and put them in the washer immediately-don't do anything else-then go take a cool shower and wash from head to toe. Twice. Don't go hot. Cool or cold is best.

    Yep that was me, I got the scooped hood when they fixed it from the deer strike. The decals are gone now.

    If you are in GV, Spring hill pharmacy has a great poison oak gel they compound. I agree with a shot of Kenalog, you won't have oak or allergy problems for months

    You can go to www.imgur.com and upload the pics there. It will give you codes to embed the pics and you want to copy+paste the link that has the
    tags around the link.

    Got called a punk ass bitch, by what I assume were 3 high schoolers, while I was at the gym. All I did was ask them to move so I could do use the pull up bar. The fuck is wrong with people
