i simply do not see how they could place 7 or 9 stents into what are only 3-5 vessels.

 

Do you have a detailed medical report? Or an itemized bill?

This is from the 1st procedure showing 5 stents

Could not have been 7 stents (at one time) unless another part of the body than the heart also involved. There are only 5  major arteries in the heart (3 actually and then another 2 smaller branches).

 

Usually if 3 or more vessels are occluded they will go for bypass rather than stents.

I was originally advised I needed 9 but then had 5 inserted and 2 weeks later had 2. Are you  you suggesting that the hospital charged me for stents they never inserted.

Sheryl, I have such high regard for you as you were the person who made the perfect recommendation for me of a Dr in Bangkok when it was discovered 2 years ago that I had a cancerous tumour and which subsequently saved my life.

After your comment, I am now concerned that I was conned by the Pyathai Hospital.

Actually doubt that 50k is very expensive for actual stent (but been 8 years since I had)  - they are normally US made medical products and not cheap to buy regardless of hospital.  Believe 7 is unusual as they should not be used for less than 70% blockage under current guidelines AFAIK.  

Apparently 2 were totally blocked, I don't know about the rest.

I had 7 stents inserted 3 years ago at Pyathai Hospital, Siracha spread over 2 visits and costing 50k baht each plus all the other costs - around 600k baht in total. Have experienced other serious medical problems since then but so far they seem to be working really well.

Just today I stopped by at a shop on the bypass (railway) road between Khao Noi and Noen Plubwan.

Their prices seem to be reliable for me.

Which side of the railway, Sukhamvit or Dark Side

I am looking to put new covers on 6 chairs. Any recommendations in Pattaya

The Pattaya Consul is Bert Elson who owns the Tropical Bar on the Dark side. Tel 038-197-002

Just google Tropical Bar Pattaya for more info.

It is my understanding from another source that he is an honorary consul and therefore only deals with emergencies. (see previous post)

Is there a person who works full or part time as a British Consul in Pattaya

Where can I find a list of British Consuls in Thailand

the only reference I see to your specific phone is to add contact favorites to the home screen as an icon.

 

Does your 'dialer' or 'people' app even show a presentation area for 'favorites', or even 'recently called'?

After much research on the internet I have set up a group in contacts named favourites and put them all in there. Thanks for your time.

You might not have the toggle option in the 'dialer', but should have it in your 'contacts' app. Look for that and see if the favorite 'star' is displayed in that app.

No I'm afraid it's not there either.

Thanks for reply. I do not see the star on my screen. See below

I have recently replaced an old I Phone with a Samsung A21. On my previous phone I could allocate some of my contacts as Favourites and they would appear at the top of the list. Is there a way I can do this on my Samsung phone as my old tired brain can't seem to find a solution.

What about using another email address? With Outlook Mail, my Newsletter was always hours late, no exceptions, and sometimes missing out altogether.

Now I use Yahoo and it is always on time morning and afternoon.

It is not a newsletter. It is a daily news video that doesn't play and has nothing to do with emails. As explained earlier I have tried various browsers.

Well, trying with Chrome (instead of Firefox) I have to click through a captcha.

And the links to three videos ("TODAY'S NEWS", "TODAY'S FULL SHOW" and "TODAY'S THAI TIME" are dead (do nothing) OR if I click the header some new site comes up but no video. Quite a mess.

So not all in order.

 

Use the contact form and describe the problems:

Thanks. I have tried various browsers and although accessing the web site is OK I cannot watch the daily videos. It worked fine until a week ago. I have sent a message to the link you mentioned.

Still not working for me. Have I accidently changed a setting on my computer that could have caused this to happen.

I had a rebate last year of about 200 pounds  and they reduced my tax for this year by that amount.

I used Bangkok Bank last time and there was no problem

I am having problems this week accessing TODAY"S NEWS online on the above web site. Anyone else having the same problem.

I have just received an email from Microsoft stating that they are updating their Services Agreement with various new charges. If I continue to use the old versions of Word, Outlook and Xcell that I currently use am I right in thinking I will incur no new charges.

I have this model printer which although not expensive has excellent printing and scanning capabilities. As has been said they come with special initial cartridges which are smaller than normal but my coloured lasted 4 months and black 5 months with medium usage. The new ones which are original and work fine cost 270 baht from Lazada (see my previous post). The printer in January cost 1990 baht but has since gone up to 2590 baht.
