Yes.
Everybody has their own tolerance to poison ivy.
There are some people on this board that are apparently immune to poison ivy exposure (like Fast Eddie
) on one end of the spectrum and those that end up in the emergency room of their local hospital after a minor exposure on the other end of the spectrum.
Personally, no matter how much poison ivy I have to walk through, if I can wash up before the end of the day, I'll be fine. If I let it sit on my skin for 12+ hours, that area will break out in itchy blisters.
