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

A cilantro extract (herb pharm sold at Whole Foods, amazon, etc.) has completely cleared by Grover's. I take one full dropper a day. My trunk and chest were covered in red bumps a month ago, and it has all cleared up (after 10 years of dealing with Grover's). Not sure these results are translatable to everyone, but I hope so. Was just at my dermatologist and he was amazed given the general lack of a cure (topical steroids hadn't worked for me).

I was diagnosed with Grover's about 30 years ago after moving to Hawaii. Topical steroids have never really worked that well. When it gets really bad I have to take Prednisone. However, my derm recently prescribed the antibiotic Cephalexin. Gone after only a couple days! Holy Crap! And, it's having a hard time coming back. So, I rub a little triamcinolone which takes care of it. Keeping fingers crossed. Might even try sun bathing. That always has aggravated it but maybe not now after the antibiotics.

I’m tempted to order the cilantro extract. Are you still using it? What side effects if any? I am also on the dementia connect site. My husband has Mimd Cognitive Impairment but also Grovers. I was interested in the detox effect of the extract. I’m wondering if his impairment is from mercury and other toxins from working as a dentist for 45 years. Just wondering
