Stories like this make me deeply grateful that I’m apparently not allergic.
I hope the drugs have kicked in and you’re feeling better, treis.
I lived for 41 years without getting it and then I helped clear some overgrown shrubs at a friend’s house. Poison ivy or oak or whatever it was truly sucks. And I didn’t have it in any delicate areas. :eek:
I am lucky that I am not allergic to poison ivy.
However, it is something that you can lose your tolerance / susceptibility to, so I can cautious in my touching thereof.
As a kid, my father was deathly allergic to poison ivy. I soon found out I wasn’t. Touching it or inhaling it has never bothered me, so I would often mow it for my father with my mover (hence making it airborne and inhaling it).
While I cannot help snerking at your misery, and feel completely sorry for your predicament, being a girl, I gots to ask, where did you get the shot?
I hope you feel better.
They make me grateful I live in Merrie England where poison ivy existeth not

I heard about some poor kid that got a bee sting right on the helmet. I wanted to send him a fruit basket.

A wasp stung me on the knob once. It wasn’t anything like as bad as the cockmare that you are going through though. Good luck man.
I’m really, really keen to know why you had your todger out in the vicinity of wasps.
Some perversity I’ve not yet encountered perchance

I was gathering firewood while wearing shorts, and I disturbed a wasps nest. I got stung tons of times but luckily only once “down there”.
Hmmmm, a likely story ::dubious::
Well, I’m sure the SDMB is waiting with bated breath for the condition of my package, and I shall not make it wait any longer. The swelling went down tremendously, and is essentially gone. My balls still itch something fierce, but hopefully that will go away soon.

Ok…TMI! TMI!
This reminds me of **Qadop’s **story of the guy who injected his wang with something. What the hot dog baked in a bun analogy that he used?
ah, the bagel dog thread. I don’t want to link to it though. It put me off bagel dogs for good.
I think “cockmare” has now supplanted spiders as my no. 1 fear.
ETA: LorieSmurf, is that really such a bad thing?
The worst that has happened to me was having the runs at night in a campground on an island near Hiroshima, and having to use a squat-type toilet. Not too bad except for the damn mosquitoes. :eek:
Thanks. Googling hot dog penis did not give me the desired results.
