I done doing yard work forever. I had a 6 month checkup with the doctor but over the weekend I managed to cover my lower legs and arms with poison ivy. The doctor wanted to take my blood pressure but when I rolled up my sleeve he saw the rash and said "Well your blood pressure isn't that important right now".
I got a script for prednisone because the itching has been keeping me up at night.
The next time I do yard work I'm getting one of those big hazmat suits.
