I live in a small soi around the Index area. Try these sois around the Hua Hin hospital. There are a couple of nice houses. My neighboring house is empty since 9 years. It is for sale only (not rent). As far as I heard they reduced the price but still should be around 4 M. And, of course, buying a house in Thailand requires Thai citizenship.

Hua Hin Hospital has a dialysis section. It is called Hua Hin Hospital 3 and it is on soi 89 off the main road. see this link: https://www.google.com/maps/@12.5256133 ... 312!8i6656 Also in Pranburi a female kidney doctor working in Hua Hin Hospital has a small clinic for reasonable visits in the afternoon hours. As for your other concerns: Hua Hin is build along the coast line and stretches 15 kilometers in width. Also a lot of houses and resorts have been build during the past years beyond the hills, so it is necessary that you need some means of transportation. Rent is tolerable for long time renters. Should be anything between 10.000 and 20.000, depending on your preferances. I am living here since more than 20 years and I still think it is decent place. What are the cons: poorly maintained roads, the terrible sidewalks are not a glorious chapter for a so-called “paradise city”, scattered rubbish dumps everywhere. As there are only two roads for entering Hua Hin from the north, traffic congestion is a big issue, especially during holidays. Well, come and find out yourself

He said, he loves it here but cannot afford it anymore. As the pound constantly on its way down life for him becomes unbearable expensive. At present under 43 and with the bleak prospective of sliding further he is forced to pull the brake. He was on his way back home. I wonder how many more have given up....

My GF has 1 Rai land upcountry (Sakon Nakhon) and plans to offer part of it for rent for making a new 7/11 in the area. The land is located on a major rural road, large road side, plenty of space, between two villages, no 7/11 around within 20 km, chanot, electricity, water. Does anyone know who to contact? What rent could she expect? She doesn't want to get into franchise, just to rent the land.

That would have been an appropriate face-saving behavior. It is clear that when there is no receipt, the amount is free for negotiation.

Not saying there are no other options I agree 100% percent. This is really an annoying and rather maddening nonsense, which you find in more and more restautants and bars today. The louder the more Sanuk. The sheer level of noise prevents any sensible conversation. Seems Thais are afraid to talk to each other. Worst place here in Hua Hin is the well-known Baan Khun Por place, where you have to shout to each other with full force just to say simple things. It's so sickening. The Thais never complain, it is part of there culture. The restaurant owner thinks when he plays laud music it makes the guests feel well. The louder the more Sanuk. I wouldn't mind some nice background music, but why restaurants have to be turned into live performance shows I will never understand.

Exactly!!! "the cam girls, penpals and family donations/gifts from abroad will be declaring"??? not in a million years

Thank you Sheryl, I always appreciate your quick response and your comprehensive infos. I am familiar how things work in government hospitals, anyhow, thank you for detailed description of processes, and esp. for the freezing environment, which I also experienced at the Institute of Dermatology the other day. So i will keep this in mind. In HH hospital creatinine values differed a lot in several checks from 163, 1,53 and then 1,75. So still high. eGFR was 45,08 an then 38,32 Ultrasonography showed kidneys in small size: 8.3 and 7.9. It is time to have a more in-depth examination carried out. Will try to contact chula the next days. Thank you again, Sheryl!

Can anyone recommend a nephrologist in a government Hospital in Bangkok? I am diagnosed stage three renal failure (from Hua Hin hospital) and would like have a more in depth analysis of the root cause and possible treatment. I have already some experience with state run hospitals (in other matters) and would like to prefer one of those. Doctors usually speak decent English and I speak enough Thai to get around with the nurses. Maybe Sheryl has some good advice…

This green moss is extremely dangerous. I think I saw warning signs out there, but some visitors may not see them or underestimate the danger. It can't be said loud enough: Don't step on the moss!!! And yes it is Pak Nam Pran Beach.

Exactly! and a lot of other questions

Apart from the little green buses cruising the main road up and down there is no public transport in Hua Hin. The mentioned Hua Hin Car Company Limited is a private company presumably offering private transportion services.
