When you feel them, is the bump hard or soft & mushy? If it is soft, you may be able to squeeze the pus out of them but you may have to poke a small hole in the center of it with a sterilized needle (alcohol & fire) this will help it drain out. (If they are boils and you go to the doctor, he will do the same thing, smash them & give you antibiotics.
Another problem that it could be. If the bump is hard, you might have ingrown hairs. If the hair is not strong enough to break the skin then it will grow on the inside and it will grow larger enough to form a hard bump under the skin.

Why are you off your meds? What makes you think you are now Type 2 diabetic?
People with diabetes do have a harder time healing, but that doesn't mean that's why you have the boils.
Have you been following your diet as closely as possible, doing everything the doctor has told you to do? If not, start doing so tomorrow. You need to help control your blood glucose levels.
It doesn't help to worry about what your doctor might say on Monday. Stress also messes up the blood glucose. If you need treatment for diabetes, you will be taught everything you need to know. It will be up to you to follow instructions and do whatever you can to take care of yourself, just as it is right now.
Try to distract yourself until you see the doctor. Live your life, do things you like to do, take care of yourself, think of things other than yourself. That's really all you can do at this point. Good luck.

Boils are caused by the staph bacteria and this has nothing to do with diabetes. If they are truely boils the doc will give you antibiotics to help clear up the infection. As for the diabetes you may or may not need medication or insulin shots depending on how bad it is. Many people can control it with diet and exercise. Some people needs medication, diet and excercise while other use medication, diet, exercise and insulin. You doc will check you out and decide if you have full blown diabetes or not and what treatment he thinks might work best if you do have it.

Now a days diabetics is not a major disease to worry about IF AND ONLY IF u follow and take care of three major issues
DRUGS/ MEDICINES
DIETS
DISCIPLINES
I cann't understand why u have interruped your medicines for such a long period..because u seems to be a consious girl.
Diabetics can cause delay in complete cure of different infections , your skin boils are one of those..but they never generates from diabetics. only certain clinical and or phathological investigations can confirm it.
It may be that u may have not diabetics , so why are u so worried at such a early age.? Please donn't create disease in your mind yourself.
Specialists in sex ,skin and VD may be needed for cure of your boils. ,but if u have diabetics it needs to be controlled first.
I heared about some orally takable insulin tablets in newspapers .but i don know whether those are ready for prescribe or not.
Remember only consulting doctor will not do if u don't follow his all advices. NEVER INTERRUPT in your COMPLETE COURSE of MEDECINES what ever those may be. If u face side effects, infrom immediately about it to your doctor.

stay cool and calm, i don't think there is a relationship of having boil to your diabetes, (as far as i can remember while working in hospital). Avoid in heat places and be clean always. And regarding to your diabetes, medications can help you to control with your diabetic diet and some from of exercises.

Getting boils here & there means that your sugar is not properly controlled. Nothing to be scared about it. Acceptance is very important & proper education pertaining to diet, hygiene & medications like insulin injection will be given to you by your doctor.

A fart comes from undigested foods traveling through your intestines being further broken down into smaller molecules creating a byproduct known as gas. Humans have three sections of the large intestine, the ascending, transcending (or lateral), and descending portions. When you sit down, your ascending and descending colon is pinched off creating greater pressure. The reason it hurts to expel gas while sitting down is because you are forcing air out of a narrowing section of your intestine. The back pressure is what causes pain.
