LOL! I don’t know, I haven't tied it....maybe ;)

Do you know anything good for the poison ivy, other than calamine lotion? I have all over my legs. I can’t get rid of it. I had it on my face just a few weeks ago. I thought that was bad. ;)

I didn’t know you had gotten poison ivy. That has to
be so itchy and annoying!

hydrocortisone cream and oatmeal.

Another use for an old sock.. Handful of oatmeal. Wet it with warm water, scrunge it and pat the milk on.

You can also do an oatmeal bath a lot cheaper than aveeno with 10% of the mess.

Oatmeal in the leg of a stocking and tie it on the spigot of the bath tub. The good stuff comes out in the bath water and the mess stays in the stocking.

Also stay away from hot showers or hot baths, will make the itch flare up something awful.
