I have never had the boils problem, but a friend of mine has!. He has recurring boils and is diabetic and sometimes just can't move because of the boils!.

Craving sweets is not a sign of diabetes, it is a sign of you are not eating correctly, too many grams of starchy carbohydrates will do that to a person!.

Your other symptoms should have you racing to the doctors office for treatment of the boils and for testing for your blood glucose level and your thyroid level!. Any Endocrine problem has similar symptoms!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Avoid sugar and high amounts of carbohydrates!. Eat balanced meals with whole grains at regular times!.
Losing weight helps control diabetes!.
Maybe your eating something greasy!?

Okay, so, I don't have diabetes (but my best friend does), but you definitely sound like you have diabetes!.
When Mel (my best friend) was diagnosed a few months ago, it was because of the whole always being thirsty and peeing thing!.
And I'm not sure about the cravings and anxiety, but the cravings definitely, definitely sound like they could be diabetes related!.
I'm also not sure about the boils, because I've never known anyone to have them, but if you have those as well as other symptoms of diabetes (which you do) I would get that checked out!.

So go to your doctor as soon as possible!. They'll do a few blood tests and you should know shortly what your diagnosis is!.

I hope that it's not diabetes, but if it is, good luck!.
It can be a hassle sometimes (I'm speaking from Mel's point of view now!.!.!.) especially if you're on an insulin shot, because every time you want to eat pretty much anything, you have to give yourself a shot!. As well as checking your blood sugar pretty regularly!.

You do get used to it after awhile, and now Mel doesn't mind at all, but it may be hard to get used to at first!.

I really do wish you the best of luck, and hope that you end up with a clean bill of health!.
If it doesn't work that way, though, you will get through it!. =]Www@Answer-Health@Com
