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

I just checked out the site recommended t kg7382. I feel the dermnetnz. org site, New Zealand Dermatology site has more complete info and the photos when diagnosing are very beneficial. I am always surprised that each info sites states it is more rare in women because most the bloggers about GD are women, yet perhaps that because women are often more proactive in searching for answers to health issues. The problem in getting research grants for treatments of the various forms of eczema is that this disease doesn't kill us, yet when symptoms are severe we may wish we were dead.

Yes, the NZ site is the one my derm recommends and uses. I started there 🙂 I think the explanation was also good on the rare disease org site too. I have read all the articles on Pub Med but really haven’t found anything overly helpful. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/?term=(Transient%5BTitle%5D+AND+Acantholytic%5BTitle%5D+AND+Dermatosis%5BTitle%5D)+AND+hasabstract%5Btext%5D

But if you like reading research articles, they do have Several good case studies. Typical the big pharmaceutical companies will fund research, since there is not likely much to gain for them on a rare skin condition, I wouldn’t expect to see any big scale studies soon. People sharing successes is more likely to be fruitful. I appreciate what you and the others share!! It’s helpful.
