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.
