You poor thing! I sympathize. I don't know about the boils really, but the rash in the arm pits could be a sign of acanthosis nigragans. Talk with your dr!! I had this and luckily it was because I had a cyst on my ovary that didn't produce an egg and I had to stop all stimulation medications until the following cycle when the cyst went away. The rash was BAD. I was using baby cornstarch powder, but it didn't help until I used Lotramin AF cream on it. I know it sounds weird and is an athlete foot medication, but it works on the itchiness of the rash and it was the only thing that gave me relief. (i also use it under my breasts in the summer when I get a heat rash) But make sure the Dr tests to see if you have a cyst on your ovaries. Otherwise they have to look elsewhere for cysts and that could be why you have the boils on your legs.
