Need inf re low-growing shrub-yellow & green small shiny leaves & large hairy stalk. Poisonous to touch?

The stalk is quite large for such a small bush and looks like a stalk found in the forest that is vine-like climbing on trees. It is brownish and very hairy. We have been told that particular vine is poisonous to the touch. Is that so? If so, could it be the same plant as the one described above which we found growing in the yard in Pennsylvania?

Without a picture, I hesitate to comment. Wearing protective gear, cut a portion of the stalk and be sure to include leaves. Bag it in plastic and immediately take it to your local nursery...NOT HOME DEPOT, WALMART, ETC....a bona fide nursery. If they cannot identify it, take it to your County Extension Agent, listed in your government pages in your phone book.
