GINA -- Can we delate this weird guy's posts?
from what i've gathered...he's pearching about the power of god. no joke. go look at the blog post by Blakes Mom.
as for the topic that was originally being discussed.
I agree with everyone else that you should go to your doctor or a clinic asap. you'll need antibotics and to get it drained.
I had a abscess under my armpit when I was in highschool, I ended up having to go every day to get it drained(they stuffed it so it would heal from the inside out instead of just over the hole and fill up again with fluid)...it was gross and it hurt when they did it, but it hurt less having them do that, then having it!
As you guys could probably imagine I am happy he is gone. I never thought I'd get that feisty on juvenation.

I second that. He looked like a creep (photo) and just what he was saying in posts and in his profile he sounded more like an informercial than a diabetic. Who on earth gives out their personal phone # on an online forum? Post it in restrooms "For a good time call..." That'll teach 'em :P
not hurt feeling towards james lance, all i want is honest and straightforward advice towards boils right now, since my doctor is two hours away from where i am, i just need to know what's the best thing i can do with this... of course from people like me, though i thank lance for the effort of sharing information, but there's nothing i can zip from those two post he had... thank you for all the advice you've posted.
yeah i agree, i think i need to rush to my doctor's door immediately before things get worse...
james lance:
are you diabetic what type are you? and are you on pump or shots? if not do you have someone in your family that suffers from DXd T1 or T2...
please no exchanging of offensive and harsh words in the forum... please thank you... let's help one another in kind words...

James has been removed and as for the boils, I think the general concensus is go to your doctor. :)
hi courtney, thanks for defending our clan hehehehe... i really appreciate that very much. I agree with you, no one will understand the life we have, except we DIABETICS.... hehehehe thanks for your courage to kick him off the forum... :-)
It is common for Diabetics to get boils, not sure if its high sugars or not. I know a lady at work whos daughter (non-diabetic) had one that they treated at home with Oregano oil from the health food store and was successful but being a diabetic I would not take the chance of an infection, go to the doctor or at least call him and see what he says.
Thanks for getting crazy James off our site! :)
GO NOW !!!!! to see your doctor .....I had what I thought was "just a boil" but did go to the Doctor right away and it was MRSA...put me in the hospital in isolation for 21 days ..and almost KILLED ME .. this is not always "JUST A BOIL " and by the way there is no such thing as "just " any infection if you are diabetic ..they can ALL be serious and life threatening.
What is MRSA?
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterium responsible for difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It may also be referred to as multidrug-resistantStaphylococcus aureus or oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA). MRSA is by definition a strain of Staphylococcus aureus that is resistant to a large group of antibiotics called the beta-lactams, which include the penicillins and the cephalosporins.
MRSA has evolved an ability to survive treatment with beta-lactam antibiotics, includingmethicillin, dicloxacillin, nafcillin, and oxacillin. MRSA is especially troublesome in hospital-associated (nosocomial) infections. In hospitals, patients with open wounds, invasive devices, and weakened immune systems are at greater risk for infection than the general public. Hospital staff who do not follow proper sanitary procedures may transfer bacteria from patient to patient. Visitors to patients with MRSA infections or MRSA colonization are advised to follow hospital isolation protocol by using the provided gloves, gowns, and masks if indicated. Visitors who do not follow such protocols are capable of spreading the bacteria to cafeterias, bathrooms, and elevators.
The organism is often sub-categorized as community-acquired MRSA (CA-MRSA) or health care-associated MRSA (HA-MRSA) although this distinction is complex. Some have defined CA-MRSA by characteristics of patients who develop an MRSA infection while other authors have defined CA-MRSA by genetic characteristics of the bacteria themselves. The first reported cases of community-acquired MRSA began to appear in the mid-1990s from Australia, New Zealand, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Finland, Canada, and Samoa, notable because they involved people who had not been exposed to a health-care setting.[1] The new CA-MRSA strains have rapidly become the most common cause of cultured skin infections among individuals seeking emergency medical care in urban areas of the United States. These strains also commonly cause skin infections in athletes, prisoners and soldiers. However, in a 2002 report about CRSA, many cases were children who required hospitalization.[1]
Did it come from a infusion site? My daughter recently got an abscess from a sensor and had to have surgery on it. I would call your doctor.
he is on manual injections
