Ouchy Mama
Seems as though the 5 day trip in May I took to Killbear Provincial Park had some lasting effects....aside from the mental healthcare. I was bit by a Tick. It only manifested itself about 2 week...

Things are certainly looking better. And the fact that the Dr. has not contacted me about the last blood test means that it was probably negative.
So....hopefully the last time this happens.
Funny thing, though....40 years of wilderness camping.....the canoe trip sort......and I've never had any Poison Ivy issues. Can you be immune to that?
Yes, you can be "immune" to poison ivy. The leaves of the plant have a resin that people can react to, especially in sunlight. I have never reacted in my life and others have built up a tolerance to the plant. Others can get worse reactions over time.
