Hello:  My husband was diagnosed with Grover's Disease and has had it for over five months.  He also has a Stent in his heart from a heart attack several years ago.  Does anyone know if this disease attacks the immune system in any way? This is important because it could compromise the stent as well.  Thanks for any help you can give to us.  None of our physicians including the Dermatololgist has any idea on what will work when steroids, cortisone, antihistamines and moisterizers don't.

patchal, I've not seen any research on line that even comes close to discussing this issue. It's probably wisest to discuss with both his dermatologist and heart doctor. I'll also refer you to the other posting for Grovers found on this forum which runs 46 pages over the last several years. There is a lot of good information.
