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

Hello everyone. I was also diagnosed with Gd 2 weeks ago but have been miserably symptomatic for 4 months. So far the hydrocortisone and triamcinolone Rx along with steroid shots have provided limited relief. We thought it might be a reaction to the biological infusion I'm on for RA. Right before this started I went on a low carb diet mainly to cut out most of the sugar in my diet. Makes me wonder if there is any connection since I've had such a sweet tooth my entire life. I am happy to have found this site since this is all so new (and awful) and look forward to learning from all of you. Again nothing has really helped so far.

I’m very sorry to hear you are miserable. I certainly wish there was a quick fix for this. Mine came out of nowhere as well last summer. My recent outbreak was complicated but a secondary yeast infection. So my dermatologist treated me orally and topically for that in addition to the topical steroid. Once the yeast cleared up, the extreme itching and pain was much improved. Not sure if that is helpful.
