Re: [Texascavers] Poison-ivy

When I was young I would break out horribly from poison ivy. At age 7 (1949) I underwent a series of shots for poison ivy. Following those shots I didn't break out from contact with poison Ivy. Today it is rare for me to get a bubble or two after contact with that plant. I believe that the shot

Re: [Texascavers] Poison-ivy

A technical point or two: Reaction to Poison Ivy, etc, is a chemical contact condition, not an allergy. And I'm not sure that we can describe resistance to it as an 'immunity' since it's not a disease. I'm a little unsure about Tom's suggestion to use 'mineral spirits' which is a carcinogenic organ
