I read all your posts. You have my sincerest sympathies. As I think you know, I contracted GD due to the vaccine. I just got off of six days of oral steroids. They did help, but as the dosage decreased, the itching increased. There is a doctor in NY who specializes in Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, the trigger for GD. His name is Lawerence Afrin, and can be reached at drafrin@armonkmed.com, or info@armonkmed.com, 914 730 7390. I am going to contact him today. Apparently he is the go to Dr. when it comes to this stuff. I will keep the group appraised.
