I think I have a systemic case of poison oak right now, and I'm miserable and a little freaked out. I got the first bout of it after working on our property pulling up old wire fence. There were some poison oak vines on it, and I thought I avoided them, but apparently not well enough. I got a horrible outbreak on one arm and a tiny bit on my face. I've taken a course of Prednesone and topical steroids, and the arm has gotten much better. However, now I'm broken out horribly on my hands and fingers, and I see blisters starting on my toes (which I am 100% sure never touched anything). I believe that I have this in my blood stream at this point.
