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

So many diseases we never know about until we find out we have them. You have made me curious about the Darier's as I have never heard of it before. I will look up and wonder if it is in the eczema family. It took me months for my beginning breakout to heal on the cilantro treatment. Using the cilantro it stopped the progress with in a week or two and the itching was dramatically reduced and I never got pain which I normally do, but the rash just hung on. Now 8 months only about 3 tiny scabs left, if they fall off the skin doesn't heal and new scab appears but without itching. I do believe the health of our skin is permanently altered. If Darier's itching is improved drinking cilantro I wonder if Darier's issues are related to heavy metal toxins which cilantro is suppose to draw from our bodies.

I had never heard of Darier's Disease either until my biopsy came back as that. I was very worried since it's genetic and I have two boys that I worry would then get it as well. Then I started to research it more and I was sure that it was not what I had. Since Grovers and Dariers can resemble eachother, they are often misdiagnosed as one or the other. I am going to do the genetic test to confirm so that I can either know my boys may get it or not. If it is in fact Grovers, then I'm going on a year now that I have been dealing with it. Darier's usually does not flare up and last that long. My moms side of the family in the women have been predisposed to have a lot of liver spots (sun spots) and so I expected I would inherit that which I do have on my upper thighs, tops of my hands, and on my collarbone area but never did they look like a rash or itch. My sister does have a slight rash on her chest/neck area every now and then but it goes away in a few days...mine has not.
