So I havent been on my diet and noticed how bad they are getting. I was so discouraged this pass week and I am hormonal. Everywhere i go i make a mark or (leak). I'm so enbarrassed. Today I had two women run up to me and tell me I think your period came on! Ugh. No just another boil that leaked and popped. I am getting very discouraged and I can't take it anymore. It is taking over my life.

    So sorry. I was recently diagnosed with it. I'm in my early 30s and since I feel like I hit my teen years I would get Ingrowns and breakouts on my bottom, I figure I maybe it's sweat and friction, but here I am about 20 years later and the bumps keep coming. I developed a boil inside my butt cheek and finally got the courage to show the doc and his assistant my friggin ass I been hiding from the world. Ive been dealing with this, but never had anything that needed lancing until now. I too feel in despair. I come home and am cranky sometimes cuz I feel this is a problem that I can't solve I can't do anything about and it's horrible. It's a heaviness in my chest...and I understand what it is like to feel hopeless, helpless, and over it all. I can't say anything other that we are on the same boat and I pray deeply a miracle comes and there is a cure for us all.
