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

I have shared this earlier but I want to underscore that I have found significant relief sleeping in a hammock and using an open chair to watch tv. As I thought hard about my symptoms I realized that they got worse in the evening after I had been in a leather armchair and in the morning after I got up from bed. I also noticed that when I was out on my boat using a mesh type outdoor chair to watch TV and sleeping in a hammock I always feel better after at least two nights. For the past two weeks I have been sleeping in my hammock on the boat, which I am blessed to have in the water by my house. I have recently purchased a Mayan hammock which uses very fine mesh cotton chord and will soon install it in a bedroom. I would say that the improvement is approximately 50%. It is significant, but doesn't eliminate the symptoms. My doctor agrees that this is a sound solution and said I was the first patient he knew who was willing to try it. There is a lot to learn about sleeping in a hammock and if anyone is interested I can give you advice and point you to countless resources on youtube. I will give only one tip, right now, and that is you do not want a hammock with spreader bars. The key to sleeping in a hammock is to lie diagonally. When I install it in my bedroom I will send a picture.
