I too have CG, diagnosed 3 years ago. I feel your pain. I take steroids which seems to keep it somewhat under control. Have your doctors prescribed steroids at all? It took me about a month to 6 weeks before I started feeling a bit better.

I took budesonide for a couple of years, but when my skin started tearing off when I brushed past a piece of furniture, and had bruises everywhere, I had to stop it. When you take the steroids like that for a long time, there can be a resurgence of symptoms when you stop, so I had to ease off of it.
