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

Has anyone in this group actually gone to Mayo for treatment for their Grover's disease? If so, were they at all helpful since there doesn't seem to be a definitive treatment....just try this....try that. At this point I believe I've tried every known treatment to no avail and I'm getting desperate.

The medical community knows very little about Grover’s. In the 40-plus years I’ve had this malady, only two things have worked for me: Photo Therapy and Prednisone. Each has cleared it up, but it eventually returns.

Obviously nobody famous suffers from this, or there would be more research in progress. Once Rock Hudson contracted AIDS, the entertainment industry organized and a worldwide campaign began. Grover’s is not deadly, so I believe we have to endure as best we can.
