  1. Thanks Sheryl, Ive got an appointment at the Samitivej hospital on Wednesday am.
  2. I had endovascular surgery to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm a few years back and following an ultrasound exam in BKK hospital Samui, it seems that the aneurysm may be leaking. To be sure, I need to have a CT Scan, using contrasting dye. The problem with this is that I have stage 5 ckd with a gfr of 15 and the dye is likely to finish off the kidneys and necessitate dialysis immediately. Obviously I need to see a good vascular surgeon ASAP. Your help would be much appreciated.
  3. I just completed this quiz. My Score 50/100 My Time 146 seconds  
  4. Thanks Sheryl, Ill let you know how we progress
  5. Thanks for your reply Sheryl. We live in Koh Phangan, so Bangkok would probably make sense. As you have suggested, We need to see a specialist, who can advise us of the best way forward. The doctor at Surat Thani hospital, apart from the blood transfusions has given us folic acid and vitamin pills and told us to come back in 3 months (15 Jan) There are several problems that I can see for myself, the girl is very anemic and pale, even jaundiced and her spleen is obviously enlarged which is making it difficult for her to pee, although it doesnt hurt her.
  6. My GF and I are looking after a 9 yo Thai girl, who has Thalassemia Beta and will be in need of this transplant, if she is to live a normal life. So far she has had 2 blood transfusions at the Surat Thani government hospital, at no cost, but as I will have to pay for surgery, I would be grateful if anyone knows of a pediatrician that specialises in this field that I can get in touch with.
  7. The 1st 2 episodes of Conflict are available on movies2watch,tv. The 3rd and final episode was only aired last night
  8. The state of British politics almost demands a bit of outside help and Nigel Farage could be just what the doctor ordered. I reckon Maggie would approve.
  9. Elon Musk craves attention and he probably sees Nigel Farage as a useful conveyance. Farage is going to go very close to being the UKs next PM and if Musk can help him get there Elon will once again share the limelight.
  10. Nothing yet hk. We`ve had our house painted and a few repairs here and there taken care of, but the road where we live is flooded at the moment and the concrete road that the authorities have promised us is on hold until the rain abates. When we get round to a visit, I`ll certainly give you an update
  11. Can you elaborate please, I'm thinking of moving to Hua Hin and I'd like opinions on local hospitals, both private and government. Thanks
  12. I saw them at the Isle of Wight festival in 1970, brilliant!
  13. permanently banned from driving, you think that's sufficient?
  14. I use Senna Leaf capsules which work ok, I buy them from the pharmacy.
