Sheryl, thanks for again for your excellent advise. My son feels fine and hasn't had any more seizures. My son will hold off on taking the meds. and will not do the MRI until he has seen Asst.Prof.Dr. Sikawat Thanaviratananich, in Bangkok. This doctor has incredible qualifications and I feel confident that he will devise the correct treatment plan. FYI: those KEPPRA 500 mg pills where extremely expensive. Something like 600 baht a pill. I was not with him at the time as I would have told him to get them at a local pharmacy. I know hospitals mark-up pill prices a lot. Thank you

My son went to Pattaya Bangkok hospital today. He had an EEG done. They want to do an MRI in a few days. They prescribed KEPPRA 500 mg, 2x daily. The EEG conclusion says: 36 minute EEG is suggestive of a mild diffuse encephalopathy. Also evidence of a cortical dysfunction in the right fronto-centro-temporal. No epileptiform discharges or EEG seizures. The post-ictal EEG is considered. Report doctor: Yod Pinroj I have no idea what this all means. He might consider a second opinion at the Bangkok hospital you recommended previously. He first went to Pattaya Memorial hospital and they could not do the EEG and recommended he go Pattaya Bangkok hospital. Thanks again for all of your info and help.

Dear Sheryl, thank you VERY much for your detailed answers. You are a true blessing and have helped out thousands of people. I have been following you for 12 years and I am always impressed by your knowledge and complete answers to all questions. I will make an appt. with the Bangkok hospital so he can get a complete work-up and rule out any underlying causes. Thanks again for all the Great assistance you offer to members of this forum.

I am asking for help for my 39 year old son who lives in Pattaya. Two days ago he had several seizures, first time ever. From Google they seem to be of the tonic-clonic type. He never had anything like this before. He plays a lot of sports and seemed to be very healthy. There is no family history of epilepsy. His Thai wife took him to the Pattaya City hospital where they did a CT brain scan and other tests. All tests results were normal. He doesn't drink alcohol but does smoke a Lot of pot- Cannabis-marijuana. The hospital will discharge him tomorrow. I don't know yet what medications they will give him. He has no medical insurance but I am able to help him pay for treatments. Is there any better doctors he should see ??? Can anyone who has experience with this offer any suggestions ?? As he is a USA citizen, would he be better off going back to the USA for treatment. Thanks for any help or info.

I appreciate all the posts. Thanks for everyone's help and info.

I had my last colonoscopy done there in 2014 and it cost 17K. Nothing was found. That does seem like a Very good price. Thanks for all the info.

I am 69 and have no known health issues. It has been many years since I have had a blood/urine check. Should I go to one of the Pattaya hospitals or are there better alternatives? It have been 9 years since my last colonoscopy, anyone seen any promotions being offered at the local Pattaya hospitals ? Thanks for any info.

At these low Thailand rates, I would think big money would be leaving Thailand and going to places paying 4% or higher. I really don't understand the FX markets.

Two of the 'Big Boys' getting into crypto. Maybe it means nothing. I could be wrong. hahahaha

Try the edible weed , if might work. Also kratom is legally available now, in tea or cold drinks. Facebook sells it in pre-mixed drinks. Worth a try.

Sell half and lock in your profits. Ride the rest higher if you feel lucky.

This does not seem to be a p2p issue or really a Binance issue. This is totally about how can a women go to a bank with some paper/letter and get money out of your account. Something seems very wrong here. Being you are the banks customer, why wouldn't the bank contact you first to ask questions Before giving her money from your account. I have never heard anything like this happening. There must be more to this story.

If you are not in an immediate need for the money, it might be a good idea to transfer/move the money in smaller amounts over a period of time. That should avoid raising any potential red flags or questions from anyone. Crazy world today with everyone thinking all people moving money are somehow bad or doing something wrong. It has been shown that most illegal transfers are done in cash and thru some of the largest banks. Just my opinion.

Why ?? Will you be buying or selling ??

Bitcoin was at a low of $15K in January of this year. Now close to $28K. Almost 100% gain in a few months. Not bad, even with rising interest rates. Now we can wait for the haters to remind us that BTC was $67K before.

Yes, coins.so.th has worked well for years. Fast payouts directly to your Thai bank. I think they are starting to trade other coins besides BTC.

I saw it yesterday trading at 0.9993, so it has mostly recovered. The depegging was caused by lost confidence in the US bank that was holding USDC money.

Good info, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks, you have made some good points.

Thanks !!! Good info, certainly something to think about. I wonder how that relates to Thailand savings rates, probably also going backwards.

The exchange rate can either be good or bad for you depending on what it is compared to when you made your deposit. You can either make extra money or lose some but it won't really matter if you decide to roll over your fixed account into another term deposit. As long as you don't have an immediate need for your money you can usually wait for the exchange rate to be in your favor. As with most any investments, there is always risk.

I won't mind just keeping my money in Thailand 'if' they would raise up the rates to at least 3%. I don't think that will happen anytime soon.

Thanks. Good info. Some of the larger banks in Vietnam also seem very safe.

I don 't have either of whose so I guess Vietnam won't work for me. I wonder if the bank managers can 'rubber stamp' the paperwork so you can get around these requirements ?
