Poison Oak

Yep...I got it! I discovered it a week ago and wasn't sure of what it was so I just put some calamine lotion on it, but it wasn't getting better so I finally went to the doctor a couple of days ago and he said it was poison oak. He gave me prednisone to take and I think it's actually helping it. I've never had it before, but now I know I'm allergic and really hope and pray I never get it again. The itching part of it is the worst because I'm doing my best not to scratch it to make it worse.
