I used about half of a bunch, stems and all. Most use stems too. Adjusting amounts if bunches were small. I included plain whole milk yogurt, almond milk, stevia sweetener and frozen blueberries, banana or other fruit. Once daily. I could buy about 5 bunches if they looked good, wash, trim an inch off the stem, put in a jar or glass with a few inches of water, cover with a loose plastic bag with a few hole cut in it and change the water every other day and this would keep it fresh for a week. Once I learned that frozen worked just as well I could wash bunches, dry, wrap in paper towels then plastic bag and put in 1/2 bunch divisions in freezer so I wouldn't run out. Your issues are complicated with neuropathy and hand eczema which I doubt cilantro helps with. I was biopsied for GD and it came out negative, but I do have it, it just wasn't active when biopsied. While you have active and new outbreaks on torso it's a good time to be biopsied for GD.

Thanks for the heads up. Freezing 1/2 clumps sounds like the way to go. Biopsy now also.

1st 3 weeks this November when my initial GD was raging (chest looked like the internet pictures) and red dots all over. I worked outside in 60 degree weather with no shirt and no itches all day. Came in the house at 70 degrees all hell broke-loose. I put steroid cream front and back for 2-1/2 weeks. It was all gone. Unknowingly I used back of my left hand to get my back.. Hand skin got thin of back of left hand, and fingertips of my right hand. (steroid damage there) right hand finger tips split Fissures) and back of left-hand looks like 90 year old.
That aside; now I get itches in a few places but don't see any dots. Now, is that how it starts up? Plus when it does act up, how bad does it get?
Also, the neuropathy (noticeable) does not bother me.
