San Diego BS Thread.

Yeah on initial exposure cold is best, let the soap/tecnu do the work and carry the oils off of you and your equipment instead of letting it soak into your skin. Now that you've had it for a while I'm not sure if hot/cold makes a difference. Tecnu is supposed to help relieve some of the itching, so you could still try it, but if you have any open sores or anything I don't think you're supposed to get it in those. The last time I had it really badly I tried an oat bath, which seemed to help. I don't remember what it was but some sort of oatmeal something or other designed for baths.

I actually got a steroid shot that time, too, in addition to the prednisone tabs. I think that helped the most, so see if you can get that. Good luck, man, I don't think I've ever had it as bad as you've got it. Can't even imagine 75% of my body covered in PO!

 

I'm doing the San G trip this weekend but can help out next week. I'll hit you up on Monday.

 

Looks like she already has the rack tracks on the roof. Should be able to use either Yakima or Thule components to mount the tent to.

 

How do you change thread categories? I know how to change titles but not location.

Asking for a friend.

 

You need a mod to change that

 

Tell your "friend" not to post in the wrong section lol

 

problem solved

 

I was making love to the Oak for 2 days and touched about everything! I am going to take a rag with Alcohol and wipe the shit out of everything! Its been well over a week now and I am itching so bad I look like a fucking tweeker! And it seems like my left eyelid has it pretty bad because my eye has been swollen since day 1!
I am seriously looking into goats...

But yes If we could drop bumps that blew Sumac/PO into a 3 mile radius our enemies would be severely compromised (Well at least 85% would since 15% are immuned) They would be too busy itching to fight, lol.

 

I imagine the dropping poison oak will cross the Geneva convention's outline of "use of chemical warfare" during war. Hope for a swift recovery Jason.

 

The poison oak that I got years ago took weeks to show up, and even months after it was already gone, I would get little spots here and there showing up from random stuff that still had the oil on it. I think alcohol is a great tool to neutralize the oil however gasoline and a struck match seems to work well as a last resort.

 

Except out and the neighbors can breathe in the smoke and then have the rash under the skin lmao

 

If you haven’t already bought some Teknu (it’s a liquid that washes PO off your skin and your clothes) do it now. That stuff is magic. Seriously!

I would love to burn it all away, but as said it apparently becomes some nasty stuff!!

I will, been so Fking busy all I do is wake up, go to the house for 16 hours of straight up work, come home shower and repeat.
Meanwhile Im itching like a tweeker all day! I need to get some of that stuff ASAP as well as a couple gallons of alcohol to wipe everything I touched and I touched a LOT of stuff, ha!

Yes!!! Thank you, I really need some goats!

 

Who was in a tan 3rd gen with a plate bumper on mission bay drive today? Also saw @SDkoncepts808 truck looks rad!

 

Get a bunch of tecnu liquid and wipe your stuff down with that. It works better than alcohol. There is a medicated tecnu for your skin (see link below). You can order it on Amazon.

 

bolt on 2nd gen tube bumper.

 

I just did, got some special ointment, that 32oz Tecnu bottle and some urushiol removal soap stuff.
They even have some pre-contact wipes that may be a good idea as well.

I had to get a massive dose of IV steroids on Sunday to help, it became fully systemic! You know its bad when you have it in your bloodstream, lol.
Now Im taking benadryl every 6 hours in order to control it.

But I got all my house stuff moved finally, and need to be out by this Saturday at the old place. I have a ton of stuff in the garage, gonna be a lot of moving, if anyone is bored between now and Saturday, let me know, I could really use some help moving all my crap over to the new place 2 miles away. Ill supply pizza and beers!!!

My place looks nothing like the last time you guys saw it! Been getting a lot of stuff done despite that Fking plant trying to kill me, ha!

 

Glad you finally got the stuff you need to conquer that shit! I don't think I'll have time to get by during the week. If I could come by for a while on Saturday to help you finish up with moving stuff would that be helpful? I know @Drainbung said he was going to try and get by to help as well.
