I’m a committed side-sleeper.
Whenever I try to sleep on my back, I drop off easily but soon my own snoring wakes me up.
For many years, I have on/off hip pain from the ‘contact area’ between the bed and my hip.
The pain wakes me up after after 1 or 2 hours and I have to switch sides.
Then after 1 or 2 hours, pain again and I have to switch sides.
The pain is like a burning sensation and dissipates after 10 minutes.
Often, I just get up much too early as I’m tired of the constant wake-ups and opt for my first coffee of the day.
The hip pain is not there every night. The ‘attacks’ are more often in cold weather and with harder mattresses.
I have no swelling on the hip and no problem walking or standing.
BTW, I’ve tried cushions between the knees and rubber rings, did not work for me.
I’ve had X-rays and MRI of both hips, nothing of great significance.
A well-respected orthopaedic surgeon had me standing on one leg and bending in multiple directions and implied it was all in my mind.
On the positive side, an ultrasound did indicate a possible inflamed hip bursa.
I had a steroid injection into the side bursa and no pain issue for about 2 months.
So, I really think the side hip bursas are the issue.
Possibly, I should have the hip side bursa removed.
From my Google search, seems it’s not always successful?
Plus, arthroscopy solutions seem expensive for what it is.
My side hip seems to be just skin and bone; that’s part of the problem negligible fat and muscle on the side?
Any personal experiences, or suggestions on where to get surgery in Bangkok would be welcomed.
Just stretch! Works for me 40 years!

I say why open a can of worms that doesnt need to be opened.
Must be some are scared of their own shadows!
Better to pay the taxes wouldnt it than charge it on your credit card, isnt it lije 3% to use it then if balance isnt paid off got to be close if not over 10?
Based on reading even if you wanted to pay there are so many deductions allowed?

Another brain dead idea by the walking dead.
Just put up cement block cross your fingers <deleted> hits the fan scratch ones head.
Lighting was just put in now again, they want to put drains in so the water can go where? They widen the beach so it cant be use instead should have put in then drains and set in sidewalks so cars can park.
And these same leaders want to do this to Soi Buakhao.
One way brains😂

Rubbish. Two sides here maybe, those who think he’s corrupt and those who think he’s too straight for his own good. Laugh if you like, I’m the latter in believing he has upset a few people , as he did the last time he was transferred to PMs office. He is also not stupid.
Rubbish! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Do you mean lens replacement surgery for cataracts ?
I had both eyes done with new multifocal lens's (sp?) at BKK Pattaya.
If only getting one eye done at a time was told no overnight stay, if do both at same time then overnight stay.
I opted for both at same time due to having to return to work, they did first eye, waited 10 minutes to confirm I could see ok from that eye then did the second eye.
Surgeon and staff were all excellent, now fully sighted again and hopefully never need glasses again, more than happy with the outcome.
When did you do it what was the cost for each eye please.

Actually Sukhumvit from Tepprasit to Chaiyapruek only has two bottlenecks on the going South side and none on the going North side, and all the u turn intersections are now clear, so I disagree with the above post about the Makro area. And all the way to Sattahip is very good now (with just one or two flyovers to finish).
There is more than one Makro and Bus Station!

You make no sense. Insurance Co's do cover day surgery as it is cheaper than keeping someone overnight when the proceedure does not require it.
Not taking sides but insurance is sold ala carte Inpatient Outpatient which might mean if the person has Inpatient technical procedure might not be covered.

From the time of the initial consultation to the day of the surgery was 5 weeks - cost was approx 30000 baht for multi focal lens which corrected both the vision and the presbyopia. This is the Dr who performed the surgery -

Stay away from Pattaya, all together for the next few months no matter what they claim, traffic is a mess everywhere do even think about shopping at Makro or getting to the bus station! Stay away everyone.🤣

As others have stated, cataract surgery does not require an overnight stay. However, having had both mine done, first at Rutnin Eye (Bangkok) where the anesthetic procedure caused hemorrhaging, (needle into the eye), I still went home to recover the same day, and administered the requisite drops until I went for a follow up the next week. Given my experience I then had the second eye surgery performed at Samitivej Hospital (Bangkok) with drops anesthetic and went home afterwards. I was picked up by my partner both times, and managed the washing (shower) without getting water anywhere near my eyes. The prices you are quoted seem very reasonable. Rutnin was around THB140,000 and Samitivej around THB75,000 (both eyes normal lenses).
My straightforward experience at Samitivej is the norm for these procedures, (as everyone kept telling me before the horror show at the first surgery).
Happily everything is OK in both eyes now, and the difference in my sight is dramatically better; I no longer need long distance glasses.
Price for both eyes or just one?

It is vanity!
Personally I see it more here in Thailand than back home. Guess what people dont know or see wont hurt them embrassment?
Just like a comb over🤣 let it go trim it up keep one self neat and clean guy dying yet their face is like a old wrinkle then you got to keep it up if not then a big patch of white shows up then when one had enough you end up with pink then white mean While your thinking as people will know now like they didnt before.😎

Culture and education, I really wish this problem is regulated to just his family but it isnt much more wide spread that people eant to believe.
One of the problem as I see it " criticism " in general of course family and friends see and know the problem but dont say a thing only when they had enough by then it is too late.
I for one fear the opening of casino and it is coming regardless of our opinions.

As Sheryl said earlier you need to be check first.
Your problems sounds very similar to mines.
Aging is a bit-ch I knew my eyes been getting worse having planned a trip home in Feb, I arranged to see an Opthamolagist to see where I sit at my age.
Prior I couldnt locate my old glasses so I had a new pair made I also needed to renew my driver licence when I got them leaving the next day told needed to wear them get my eyes adjusted but after a day I knew something wasnt right.
At the DMV I fail bomb out lucky I had planned ahead next day to the pre- arranged appointment result I have cataract both eyes. Also my perscription done in Pattaya was way off got new reading had lenses made passed with flying colors. In fact the new lenses when wearing are so clear unbelieveable!
Future, still need to get them done but due to cost of flight, accomodations, and time frame although Medicare will cover will most likely do them here in Thailand.
Any cost number at the Rinal Clinic Bangkok.

It is certainly confusing.
Several months ago at an expat meeting a well know Visa expert, spoke as to the new rules basically told me my situation had to make a new TM30 each time I leave Thailand and come back same residence except Condo ownet mines everything under my wife name.
I've been on a retirement Ext. Over 15 years, TM30 in my passport been for 5years never a problem.
I left for the States Feb. return 8 of March, I went down JOMTIEN on 11th. Experting the worse told didnt NEED!😁

I think prior to your photo majority thought you were talking entrance doors.
These are cabinets the size shown is pretty standard the doors come with the framing. What you have runs around Two thousand baht today stores like Homepro, Mega, Thaiwasadu. Carries them you can check their showrooms and upgrade from these plain ugly not much more worth it. Lots of nice selections these days
I wouldn't paint if not done right will peel and chip.
Measure the doors and framing if you are lucky they are standard. I believe the framing is held to cement with a few screws if not caulking.
Good luck
