Hi @veggiema and welcome to Connect! That must be frustrating to have it come on so suddenly.

I wanted to introduce you to @gardeningjunkie @robrash @jameswb @kg7382 and @ptownmama as they have Grover's and may be able to offer support and ideas to how to treat this disease.

I also wanted to share this link to the Autoimmune Disease group on Connect, where you can discuss your autoimmune disease symptoms with others and potentially receive support.

Back to you @veggiema you mentioned you were diagnosed recently, what treatment have your physician's offered at this time?

Hi Ethan,
Thank you for your response. I haven't received much support for my Grover's other than topical steroid creams, which I don't use much because I'd rather find a more natural cure/relief if possible. My itching does seem to feel better when I take an antihistamine, Zyrtec. I'm looking into diet in terms of eating less histamine containing foods to see if that helps, as I'm wondering if there is a connection (since the antihistamine seems to help). I will check out the autoimmune group here on Connect, but have been part of a very helpful FB group for the past few years, called Hashimotos 411. Wondering if it's unusual to have it come on suddenly like mine did? Thank you!
