2 bouys....in the ocean, better than non, but are they working. One gay worker said to the other 'trow me a bouyd, the other said '" not now we're working".

That's what happens when you take it up the bum. 🙂

Drunk and disorderly Aussie. 🙂

Just with my experience of polyps, but in the sinuses not gallbladder. Short story, they can turn nasty (again I am only refering to my polyps in my sinuses). Mine turned cancerous and grew up around my optic nerve and they were everywhere, so dr said 'I had to take your face off' to get them all. Right through both side sinuses growing wild. Took a bit of the nose but didn't take the jaw he said. Evidently they cut, send to pathology, get results and if the margin between the cancer cells and good skin is OK, they stop cutting but if not they keep going until there is a clear margin. Great specialist and no troubles (except no sinuses and a golf ball hole sized cut in my head). So that was the very bad news, but, of late I visited Dr for prostrate and he said (amoung other things) I have many sists on my kidneys, but not to worry as that is quite normal for oldish people. So for me the trick is to see 2 or 3 top notch specialist and go with the opinion you think. Clarifying: see one dr and he says you have many sists/polyps etc, take out the organ and another specialist says, don't worry.

That's terrible. You can't tell farmers they can't use the water from the Mekhong for crops. ...what else can they do? All boarder governments must fix this problem quickly.

You'd know. 🙂

Just drank a bottle yesterday. 🙂

Thanks for your compliment, I appreciate it. 🙂

I like the taste.

Boy...if you go to a chemist for swimming ear trouble they probably give you Aquaear (brand name) to dry out your ear to help stop infections. Aquaear is basically alcohol but costs much more. For your worries about these other exotic things, yes don't swim ever and wear a condom to bed just in case. Happy? 🙂

Not a swimmer are you. Use the alcohol after the swim. .ffs.

Also..look up Aquaear, but the bottles of 70% alcohol are cheaper.

Sorry 70% 🙂

I wouldn't worry. If you want to go for a swim in the beach, go for it. Buy some 90% alcohol small bottle and always fill up your ears after swimming in pools or beach. People have been asking if Pattaya and Jontiem beach are safe to swim for years. Back in-the-day you could boat out and look down and see the sand thru the clear water, (as told by Fr. Brennan) so I suppose since then people will argue it's never been safe.

I use public hospital for everyday things, but you have to consider carefully outcomes. Yesterday a Thai friend across the road went to the local hospital for woman's problems and had to go to a major centre (Kalasin) for a biopsy up the tunnel, which they knocked her out for the procedure. Has to go back in a week for results. My wife had a problem awhile ago, but at the private hospital they just stuck a camera up there to have a look, no knock out no drama. Who knows if there is cancer, if a biopsy would spread the cancer, camera not the same risk.

What about the Gik?

Fascists, convicts, genocide makers, yobbos, Rickard cranium, wife beaters, we love it. 🙂 It's a point of difference. Anything else you'd like to add?

See Pattayas drainage does work. Congratulations to the engineering team. 🙂

Thanks again Sheryl. KKU booked up till August so saw Prof. Watchara yesterday at Ratchapruek yesterday. Brilliant hospital and a pleasure to visit. Reminded me of our working in China experience, same tasteful architecture style. Xray showed lungs clear but need to use a steroid spray 2 puffs in morning and evening and should be OK in 1 or 2 months. Good specialist, good hospital and B1200 odd for xray (B650) and Dr. 500km round trip nearly free as drive an EV and and was doing under 90km/hr at the 3 police radar traps on the way. Gotta watch for the small 90km/hr sign and police car and radar gun behind trees. 🙂

I've had a few ear operations and lots of ear trouble over my life. Trick is to find the best EN&T specialist. For me most problems caused by swimming in cold water (swimming all year round) and small bones grow over the ear canal to protect it from the cold that water gets behind and causes infection. Had these cut out twice, but last time I went to him (in his late 80s and still going) he said it was coming from the jaw hinge. Crack and pops and pain near the hinge and from the ear down, if you press hard. If it is inflammation (arthritis) in the jaw hinge the muscles around the hinge tighten up (mine goes right up across the side of the head). For me acupuncture needles into the muscles make the muscles relax and noises pain goes. If yours (pain when you press around the hinge and jaw) use your hand and press really hard and massage downwards. Takes a few days but eventually goes away. Can also try Celebrex (antiinflamitory) could help. This is just me, may not be you. My specialist said if the ear looks clear and good, then probably the joint, evidently common and to see a physiotherapist who also does ear joint acupuncture. Forget the technical name. 🙂

Can I buy this in Thailand, if so where please.

Nearly ready to go.

Yeah I'd love to go back up there again and visit you. Did a bit of MTXing up around there and along the boarder when just dirt roads. How did you go with all the rain?
