That's what my doctor told me this morning.

Said since I didn't get it until my 30s that I probably came in contact with it over and over until my immunity was gone.

Funny story...

my grandpa wiped his ace with some one time not knowing it was in some leaves he was using. He was out fishing and beached his boat to run into the woods to do his business. Said it was the worst three weeks of his life after that...LOL

team that had to dump out during practice. Coach O wouldn't let him go inside to the bathroom so he popped a squat in the woods next to the field. Wiped with the wrong leaves and waddled around school for weeks.

Why wouldn't the coach not let him go to the shidder?

Was he trying to "make him tough" by making him hold his shid in or shid in the woods? What an asshat.

13 year old are the greatest days of your life and you spend your entire career trying to get that back. Either that or he was tired of putting up with a bunch of 13-14 year old's bullshidd. I really do not recall, I only remember this story because he waddled around school for weeks.

I bet they would call in the steroid cream for you. Worth a shot- no pun.
I got it on my lap hog a couple years ago. Wasn’t that itchy but Mrs.07 Wouldn’t touch it for anything!

Fortunately I think I am immune (is that a thing?) to poison ivy. I have never had it, but know I have been in it plenty of times.
