YVM!!!

I think Poison ivy changes per area of the potency. I can remember never getting any of it as a child, not even poison sumac, and as an adult in a different state, I once got it so badly that I had to have two different shots, as the blisters were covering my face.

While camping I squatted to pee not realizing I was squatting in a poison ivy patch. Never got any reaction at all. Luck was on my side.

I get huge welts from pine needles that are extremely itchy. Use apple cider vineger to stop the itch but it has to be reapplied often as the anti itch properties don't last long.

It does work to clear up many skin conditions. But it is important to use the kind that has the 'mother' in it.
