Should I have hernia done in private or public hospital
jcmj replied to ubonr1971's topic in Health and Medicine
I had it done a few years ago in a private hospital and decided for the price I’d rather do the small incision. It went perfectly fine and I can barely tell where the scar is. If you’re that concerned about a small scar then you are going to have to pay up and do laparoscopic. I’d just shop around. I think you will be able to find something much cheaper. Just do your research and due diligence. Good luck. -
I am privately insured and have been in the hospital on several occasions and have had the best service I could ask for. Yes it’s a private hospital, but you get what you pay for. I also have been able to get OxyContin for the last few years so it is here and available. It’s not cheap but if you need it you can get it. I found the hospital service in America horrible and so expensive that I wait until I’m here to see the doctor. I have always been treated with the utmost care. I guess it is different for the public hospitals by the sounds of it so take her to a private hospital and get her the pain medication she needs and treatment she deserves at the end of her life.

Thaksin Insists On Returning Next Month Despite Family’s Warning
jcmj replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
He may have been greedy and screwed a lot of people but it’s not like he’s the only one. I think he was great for the Foreigners. At least he welcomed us and made life easier. He also was good for the economy. Sure he f’d up with the monopoly on the phone and shares manipulation, but I’d still rather have him than Mr. P and his cohorts. They have destroyed the country in the last decade and put targets on all foreigners. JMO- 131 replies

Hmm wonder how those men in brown sneezing into their uniforms feel about this. ???? -
Shell shock: Songkla beach residents bemoan mussel decline
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Southern Thailand News
Could also be that they over harvested the past few years and they need time to catch up. At least they aren’t picking them now and letting them grow. Time will tell. I’m sure it may be a mix of both, but they need to give it time to see. I’m surprised that the Thai won’t eat the small ones though as they catch and eat squid and fish well under sized with no time to grow and reproduce. ???? -

Don’t worry, we will see a good taxi returning a lost wallet later today in the news. -

They are very important to the economy. They do all of the work the Thais believe is below them. -
Activists Call for EC to Certify Election Results by June 20
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The EC is made up of the old dinosaurs who are trying to push off the actual votes and try to stir the pot to try to keep their fellow aging associates in power. They don’t care that this is messing up the economy or the people’s will. -
General election vote recount at 47 polling stations this Sunday
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Can we just get on with this. They are trying everything they can to change the results. I’m sure if it was the dinosaurs that had more votes it wouldn’t even be an issue. -
Sad to see those enormous billboards go. They are an eyesore and not built to withstand any sort of high winds or storms.

Public Health Ministry Admits Doctors Face Huge Workload
jcmj replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They know this when they decided to become a doctor. It’s not a secret. It’s like getting into restaurant management and expecting to only work 50 hours a week. It rarely happens, and if you decide to consult at other places to make extra income, what do you expect? Some doctors in the private hospitals only work when they have to, and others work more, and all over the place. It’s their choice. -
Pita leads party’s 32 MPs-elect to meeting with Bangkok governor and staff
jcmj replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
A bit too early in n my opinion to be doing anything. They need to lay low and be confirmed as the winner before they start making plans. You all know how things work here, and it’s not very pleasant. -
Swedish bank notes now useless abroad

I imagine this will affect quite a few pensioners from Sweden and Norway. Hopefully they find a solution. I can’t imagine not being tech savvy and having to deal with this. -
Abandoning Move Forward is last resort — Pheu Thai’s Phumtham
jcmj replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If they decide to go with the dinosaur group they are worse than I thought and believe the Thais will be extremely upset. That move should not even be the last resort in my opinion. -
Good for them. About time the small guys get a chance to make some money.

House speakership tussle expected to be resolved in mid-June

Boy these old dogs love to dig up dirt. Hopefully non of it will stick and we can finally move forward. -
Just because you own your own condo in your name doesn’t mean that they can’t make some law in the future that will change your rights and seize it as well. It was done in Mexico about 30 years ago. I highly doubt that will happen, and I doubt that they will ever crack down on Companies owning houses. It’s been thrown out there for years but nothing has happened yet and I don’t think they want to do all that work to find the ones done for this reason. Sure it may but as long as you keep your business private, you should be ok. Not a wise choice to ask on a forum. Easy enough to just ask friends and find a lawyer. But a little late on that one. In any case Thailand will do what it wants when it wants and we have no rights.
