Sorry, I don't understand ! Where did you get the idea that she meets the min requirement's? But thanks for your concern,much appreciated .

I filed many times in the past ! This year is a little bit different ,in that I have a joint Bangkok bank account with my Thai wife . We live in Thailand ,never been to the states,she has a ITIN#,she doesn't have a green card. I do meet the Fbar requirement's because of the 400k in my Bangkok Bank account. If someone will Correct me if I'm wrong or guide me through this ,I would appreciate it. I think I'm suppose to fill out a Record of Authorization to Electronically File FBARs form 114A. Also I believe she doesn't have to file separately because she doesn't meet the guidelines of being a usa resident. The instructions are confusing imop https://www.fincen.gov/sites/default/files/shared/FBARE-FileAuth114aRecordSP.pdf Posted in another thread but didn't get a response

@Farmerslife have you mentioned a cystoscopy to your dr or have they suggested this procedure prior to your surgery? Just asking.

Please Please don’t encourage this kind of conversation! I come to this thread to see respectful advice ! I m struggling to use the ignore button

My latest digital romp by the dr,was 30 % according to him. I followed up with a ultrasound and that dr said about 50 grams! I’ll look into some of the other procedures you mentioned! That urolift would be nice if it was offered here! It’s getting totally frustrating ,getting up to P every 2 hours!

I go to the Army hospital ( open to everyone) and get a four month supply of dox and fin for almost 1 thousand bht! The dr fee was 50 bht. My prescription is 2 mg 2x per day of doX and 5mg 1x per day of Fin. I have been on these for 9 years!

Good ! I read that some dr’s prefer you to be awake during TURP! https://academic.oup.com/bjaed/article/9/3/92/388586?login=false

Good luck with that and thanks for the heads up! Totally agree with your opinion in dueling health departments ! This enlarged prostate problem has me considering the PAE,rezum and UROLIFT procedures ,over the TURP! Still lurking!

Are they going to put you to sleep or use a spinal tap?

Yes, worse before it gets better ! I’ve seen this on some YT sites!

“Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE) is a cutting-edge procedure performed to help improve urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate without the risk of sexual side effects. Originally developed in Europe and South America”, I was researching this and had hopes of finding some conversations on here about the procedure and possibly reviews. Anything but the gold standard(turp procedure) would suffice imop Thanks for the comment!

Good luck with that!

Anybody got any recent prostate experiences to share ? Its been almost 4 months! My urologist up here in Sakon Nakhon suggested to come back next year for a follow up! 69 yrs old,Psa ,0.93 ,large prostate about the size of 50 grams im told by the ultrasound doctor. Unfortunately he only does TURP the gold standard. Im very much open for a less invasive procedure . PAE sounds promising but I have to look if hospitals here offer it!

I tried my citi app today with a vpn no issues. I also have mint mobile ! Ive had it since 2019 $180+tax for 1 year I only use it for the bank verification txt codes! I use a cheap Alcatel flip phone! I use my IPhone here in Thailand with a thai sim card for everything else

Did you ever have a safe pass card ? Also when you opened your BofA account you needed a phone # ,I believe ! What happen to that!

Its been such a long time ! This is from a previous post ! Yes, For the first time,they send you a verification txt code to the phone on file. I installed and registered my Yubico 5 NFC today ! 1. I went to Yubico's website and verified that it was genuine, by inserting it in the USB ,soon after the Yubico ok it. 2. I went to B Of America site and had to get a code and use my pin to my debit card ,to initiate the verification process ! I followed the next prompt. 3. I pressed the button on the key and a screen came up , Security key was successfully added

Also in that article "The case was reported in a fully vaccinated city resident who had also received a booster dose"

Bottom line ! The last thing I would worry about on a plane is where a unvax is sitting. Booster vaxers can get and give the thing too https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/illinois-first-case-of-omicron-variant-reported-in-chicago-resident-officials/2702294/

In that case you better double mask and wear a face shield like I do

The last thing I would be worrying about is whether someone is unvaxed or vaxed ! The first case of omi in california was from a vaxer https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/first-us-omicron-case-identified-in-california-health-agency/articleshow/88037972.cms

Flying out of Thailand to another country would be much easier and less costly( everything dealing with covid costs) , I would think as opposed to having to come back here with all the hoops and covid revenue schemes Thailand has installed. Best to kizzy up,stay put !

Some it up in a song ,"Don't worry be happy"! Can't say that if one is just starting to embark on a journey through the unknown,while sleeping with your fingers crossed in hopes you are one of the lucky ones who escaped the wrath of being untouched by covid and the travel schemes misfortunes

Just when a fella started to think it was safe to go back out,it pulled me back in ! I'm much more apprehensive to travel through the bureaucratic covid requirement hoops then I am of getting the poison.

Another money making scheme me thinks ! Drive out the competition by proclaiming the masks that Thai's and others wear, suddenly don't meet someone from the govt quality approval standards 555 I wear two at all times, when outside. Korea's KF 94's ! They probably are counterfeit seeing that my wife buys them online in quantity . IHNI. I haven't got sick so it must be working ???? Old saying, if it isn't broke, don't fix it
