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

I had a biopsy and Grover's was found but I have additional Hives like and blistering rashes that popped up at the same time. I am trying to figure out what is triggering them or IF it's just associated with the Grover's ... I just don't know and neither do any Doctors to this point. Since taking cilantro, the "typical" Grover's rash has gone, but the other rashes remain.

Have you looked into food testing for allergies? I wish I knew more about food testing My sister-in-law has an obvious flare up with hives after eating strawberries. I am convinced giving up processed sugar and severely limiting my gluten since Oct 18 has directly contributed to my internal skin issues calming down, as well as my female tissue area no longer burning and returning to normal healthy skin. I don't think I am allergic to processed sugar or gluten, it's that they breed yeast whose waste products elevate inflammation Could food trigger your hive like rashes? Based on another bloggers recommendation a few weeks ago I ordered a food allergy test kit on Groupon, it's only $35.00 and simple. Normal price is $135. At Groupon you register with site, get a code and send off your own hair sample. It's been weeks since I sent it off but a few days ago received confirmation they are testing it now. It checks for an assortment of food allergies like dairy, nuts and many more. I ordered the Silver Kit the middle priced one as it seemed thorough enough. After report is sent to me I'll report back if I think it's worth it. If you don't want to wait go to Groupon: Check My Body Health Food Sensitivity and Intolerance Test, offer expires Oct 17, 19.
If anyone knows of good food testing available with an MD let us know.

FYI—been off cilantro smoothies for 11 days. After 7 months I decided to see where I stood with Grover’s. So far, so good. Working out, running and back to my normal routine. Don’t want Grover’s to control my life. Will keep y’all in the loop.
