My allergist explained it to me. The few that are "not allergic" is not really true. They are just "less sensitive". It's about 15% of the population. However their sensitivity can change at any time. he was pretty sure that's what happened to me. I've been exposed to it my whole life and never thought twice about it. Until July when my legs were covered. I wore snake boots and shorts hanging a stand that was covered in it

CrOck1, My wife and her dad are both very sensitive to poison ivy and they have found that topical applications of apple cider vinegar seem to hurry the healing process. Seems to dry it up in a few days. It may not work for you but it would be worth a try. Be sure to use real apple cider vinegar, not the imitation stuff. Treefarmer
