new discovery for rash/itching

[markie]

well, new to me and thought I would share for those who might be interested.... I got a very bad case of poison oak last weekend... topicals don't help at all, it was miserable... I went to the doctor yesterday to get prednisone.... she suggested Zyrtec and Pepcid taken together... expensive so I bought off brand, cheap enough... the itch is gone... this is life altering for me

I never had a bout of poison ivy in Vermont, but here in Maryland, I am continually breaking out from poison oak... this time I was preparing garden in unworked land... pulling vines that I assumed were regular English Ivy... must be there was some poison oak in the mix and because it hasn't leafed out yet, didn't know... so just a fyi for those in need
