Thanks,


I have gotten it, and cleared it up with Technu (Made in Albany OR!) but then I REALLY got it while fishing the Deschutes with driftfishnw. My arms looked like a stuck them in a deep fryer. Nastiest thing I have ever experienced. Dr said it was either an extreemly potent batch of PO, or my allergy had grown more sensitive. Prescribed me Predisone and oh my God did it clear it up fast. I'm not even going to hesitate if I get it again... straight to the Dr. for Predisone.

You may want to look into it.
