Cyst Removal, Cost and unusual after care instruction.
scoutman360 replied to sqwakvfr's topic in Health and Medicine
I had a cyst the size of a pea removed from my hand at Bangkok Christian, about 7000bht (other private hospitals wanted 30,000bht). None of that nonsense you described. The price included biopsy, and a return in 10 days for stiches removal. Great job. -
Why planning 3 meals a day? As my uncle always said, "I eat when I am hungry, sleep when I am tired, and wake up when I am rested." Now doctors are promoting the benefits of intermittent fasting. Keeping your food intake to only 4-6 hrs per day. We all need carbs, but the excess consumption is making everyone fat. I currently don't eat until lunch and feel great.

Also, don't rule it out. I have seen similar on TV where it was a fly larva growing under the skin. Mostly occurs in Africa, but worth taking note.

I have used 005 which is supposed to be one of the cheapest. Very satisfied, but sometimes quality is hit and miss. Also Skype, which I have been most happiest with when connected to WiFi.

I stopped going to Major for this reason and only go to SF Cinema City. They still take cash. The prepaid cards always have money left over you don't use. Vote with your feet.

Travel to US: medical trip insurance and trip cancellation ins
scoutman360 replied to Jimbone's topic in General Topics
I have used AIG a few times when traveling to the U.S. Signed up online. Reasonable prices. -
From your bank's online app. Assuming that you have a Thailand bank account, you can add the electric company to your bill pay list. Free and easy.

Deserted. Ever since Covid-19. You can even get a seat.

Do you speak fluent Thai? If not, good luck with that. They have no interest, why should they? Lot's of handsome rich Thai guys around.

Blepharoplasty (Eye Lid Surgery) - Lower eye
scoutman360 replied to eng39tt's topic in Health and Medicine
I had my lower lids done by Dr. Greechart at Yanhee. Not sure if he is still there, but you can check. I am extremely satisfied with everything except for the long wait to see him. He is very popular. In fact, after a month when I saw him, I said he could have removed more skin, but he basically said "Not worth the risk, you can always do it again." As someone said above, it lasts a few years. Maybe in 10 years you will want to do it again. That's growing old, nothing lasts forever. Good luck. -
work permit cancelled?
scoutman360 replied to shabooya's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I agree with others that your prospects are grim. Little hope for you unless you are over 50, and you can then convert to an extension based on retirement if you meet the criteria. -
Yok Yor Cruise. It is toned down for a more local crowd. Saffron Cruise. Very high-so for a more sophisticated crowd. Dinner jacket type of cruise. No thumping base and screaming dancing girls.

Traffic noise is something to consider. I prefer a quiet soi. Can't sleep with loud motorbikes and cars.

Be forewarned. People have been arrested and deported for this without the proper VISA. Welcome to Thailand.

I would leave and tell the owner why. Even requesting I.D's from family and friends is inappropriate.

Borax (Lazada), + sugar. A little stove top heat to melt together. Dip in some cotton buds and problem solved. Trust me. They never came back.

You mean Thong Lo police district. Lumphini District controls lower Sukhumvit, below Asok. I have never heard stories of them doing this.

I like Sheryl's advice. I have had a deviated septum my whole life, I deal with the symptoms daily, but I didn't know this was a problem until someone told me it should be a problem.

I got it after moving to Thailand. Less alcohol, going back to at least 50% western diet solved it. More pasta, dairy, all those less spicy things made it go away. The doctors gave me videos to prove it.

Video chat with the doctor works pretty good. I did that when my girl was in the hospital. It was her idea to show her sincerity. Doctors normally can speak English, even government hospitals.

Covid-19 insurance to $100K for fully vaccinated people doesn't make any sense at all. Hospitalization risk to vaccinated people is as low as normal flu, or so the stats say. I also had to pay for a whole year of covid insurance because my Thai insurance plan (and Thai SSO program) isn't enough for re-entry.
