Ivy Update

Here's the scoop on my poison ivy. (This might be graphic for some of you!) Yesterday it got exponentially worse. It basically began to spread all over my legs and get really red and swollen, and then my ankles felt swollen too. Because i work at a manufacturing facility, there is a nurse practitioner here to see. However, even though my boss begged the people above, i couldn't go see her because I don't have full time benefits. Therefore, i left work early and went to an after hours clinic. After waiting two hours, i finally got in to see the doctor, who confirmed i did have poison ivy (some of us had doubts) and gave me some Rx's for steroids and such. It's been a pretty painful experience, and i have a high tolerance for pain. I've included some pictures for your viewing pleasure-- hopefully it will clear up soon.
