Thanks for sharing. I agree about heat being significant factor. Maybe that’s why it’s worse at night under covers when our body temp rises. Also summer is worse. Whoever mentioned using Selsun blue medicated shampoo thank you. I’ve been using as supplement to my body wash for past couple weeks as well as on scalp and seems to be helping.
I do consume too much sugar so need to cut back.

I live in California and when we get the dry Santa Ana winds...that's a huge trigger for my GD. I increase the cilantro on those days and it seems to help somewhat. We are retiring next year to Ireland - I am so excited for the cold, humid weather!!! People without GD think I'm crazy but I just feel so much better in that climate!

Our histamine levels are higher in the evening so our itching and inflammation is higher.
I have given up processed sugar for life. Try a 2-3 month detox of all processed sugar as a test. If you notice no difference then sugar may not inflammatory for you, it could be other factors.
