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

Hello all. I'm new to the group but so thankful I stumbled onto this site when looking up Grovers. I was diagnosed with Grovers disease in Feb 2021. I had what I thought was a heat rash under both breasts. My derm looked at it, suspected Grovers. This was confirmed by a biopsy and she also took my case to Grand Rounds and they all agreed it was Grovers with pics, hx and biopsy. It's been a very itchy, miserable couple of months. She had me try triamcinolone first, then we tried calcipotriene which actually seemed to make it worse. I had a really bad flare up about a week ago when I found your group and started reading. I've been doing daily cilantro smoothies and there has been a remarkable improvement. Itching is gone, redness is gone. Small bumps still visible but not irritated anymore. I am a middle aged women with history of asthma as a child, seasonal allergies. My history with vaccines is this:
Shingrix #1: 08/12/20
Shingrix #2: 10/26/20
Pfizer covid #1:12/29/20
Pfizer #2: 01/19/21

First call to my derm: 02/02/21

Thanks again for your suggestion of cilantro!

I'm so happy for you that the cilantro heavy metal detox is helping you. It seems to help about 50% of us so count yourself lucky. Without this site I would never have learned about it. Like you I started noticing an improvement with a few weeks.
Have you gone back and read our blogs since mid Feb 2019 when Kimass1 tipped us off about cilantro helping?
