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

My name is Susan. I’m 81 years old and 2 years ago was diagnosed with Grovers. The rash extended over my back, front arms and legs. I need not describe the torment, you will all be familiar with it. Various topical creams and such gave relief for 2 hours at most. My social life became drastically curtailed.
Last October my dermatologist prescribed Dupixent. It has been nothing short of a miracle. The rash disappeared after the first month and has not come back. I have experienced no side effects whatsoever. I have experienced some unexpected benefits such as the disappearance of some “age spots” and renewed hair growth.
The downside is that Dupixent is expensive. If you are rich, no problem, if you have a low income Dupixent will help you out. If you are in the middle like most of us, paying for Dupixent may be difficult. My doctor has helped me with some free doses and I have now budgeted Dupixent into my life, because it has been transformative.
I believe Dupixent is FDA approved for eczema if not for Grovers. I do hope my experience will reassure you and help you make your decision. Good luck to all.

Thank you Susan for your input. I am thrilled to hear you have your life back. I hope that you are able to continue to take Dupixent.
