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

Have you gotten a biopsy and formally diagnosed as having Grover's Disease? It sounds more like you may have scabies rather than Grover's. There was a woman on the GD facebook page that had both Grover's AND scabies and was misdiagnosed as just having GD. You mentioned "organism's feces". Grover's Disease is not an "organism" to my knowledge the cause is still unknown. Have you been tested or treated for scabies?

Thanks for asking. Punch biopsy confirmed Grover's. I've read that demodex are suspected to have a role in both rosacea and Grover's. I don't know that I've been tested for scabies – would that have turned up in the punch biopsy?
