| I've had the same problem for weeks now. Keep getting reinfected. Am at the point of exhaustion now from cleaning the house, washing my hair & washing my linens. Somehow it got on my hair, then on my pillowcases, and it doesn't seem to completely come out of my pillowcases, which I've washed several times! I refuse to throw everything away. The reaction now is less but still enough to disturb my sleep with itching popping up on my face and scalp. I KNOW it's the poison oak because when I Technu my hair & scalp it gets better. But the supposedly clean pillowcases keep reinfecting me. I have been using rubbing alcohol and vinegar (half and half) in a spray bottle which works great on hard surfaces and skin too, but laundry?? I'm going to look for a better degreasing detergent and am trying ammonia, bleach, and apple cider vinegar, but the thing is driving me nuts. I will certainly post again when this thing clears up... |
