Grover's Disease: What works to help find relief?

Posted by 43219876x @43219876x, Sep 23, 2016

I have been diagnosed with Grover's disease under my breasts. I had a biopsy for diagnosis. Tried topical ointment with no really good results. Any ideas?

My family members and myself, we have different diagnosis. As the specialists mentioned, they say it could be one or another, not all the time. The issue with our illnesses is the few amount of cases, like weird, orphans, or non investigated diseases.
The wounds are like this on my picture now, but that can change as you do not imagine.

Thanks

Yes, probably not like yours. But it gets worse with time. I have this for 20 years. I’ll try the cilantro for sure!

The problem of diagnosis and treatment investigations for us with skin diseases is that research is expensive and in many cases, especially like yours which is uncommon, even if a treatment was found there aren't enough patients to justify the expense of the research.
That's why we need to keep searching on our own and share. I shared results of my use and that of others using cilantro to putting about 40% of GD suffers in remission. One derm said he might mention it to others but the other was completely uninterested in a natural treatment not used in clinical trials. The pharmacutical companies would have no interest in an inexpensive treatment, one which we can pick up in our produce section.

I have a question.

Cilantro and water.

Do you strain the juice, or do you take it with solids?

Thanks

I’d recommend using these.. super easy, fast and effective. I did the smoothies for months and did see results, my dermatologist recommended I tried these. Just put 2 dropper worth into a cup and pour about 3 oz of Apple juice or other juice and take it like a shot. I do this 2-3 times per day. Basically when I eat melas.

I use this every day as well! Two droppers with my AG-1. I was too lazy to do the smoothies. I think it may be helping – although it is hard to tell since it’s also a change of seasons. I also take quercitin and turmeric.

Yes, I just think it is not going to be the same, the plant than drops.
I’ll continue with the plant.
Thanks again

Probably the more effective of the two.

What are “melas”?
