Hi I only look 42 - 45 at most 

Sure. Did she tell you that after you forked out your first payment?

Jesus wept, some people have no shame.

Paying a Sin Sod i not a scam. Especially after the legal marriage. No idea what you talk about.

However he is not the only European who struggles with that concept. However as I pointed out in another post, I miscalculated the amount in $ ... IMHO he should get a job (instead of working illegally online) and get over it, $3000 is in fact not much.

You also made a few other mistakes claiming the OP has a Masters in English. Put your reading glasses on please. 

Actually 1 Million baht would be a minimum for a woman of her caliber which would be promptly returned to both of them, of course.

But it doesn't matter because it's a troll post.

Farangs who came here complaining about the nanny state back home can't have it both ways....unless, of course things start to affect you personally. Then the government should do more, eh?

Newsflash! You moved to a third world country.

I have never been able to find a doctor to successfully manage my sinusitis either here or in the west.

 

So good luck with that.

 

Allergic rhinitis and sinusitis usually go hand-in-hand with allergies triggering the rhinitis then the sinusitis.

 

Most larger Bangkok hospitals have allergy clinics where they can de-sensitise you against the allergies but this process takes 2-5 years.

 

The latest theory on nasal lavage is that long term it can be counter productive by destroying the natural immunology that protects the nasal surfaces.

 

A lot of nasal and oral medications can actually make things worse with the "rebound effect".

 

My management of the problem was to avoid things like dust mould cats etc and use of Nasonex (under doctors supervision of course) in times of trouble.

You can't manage this. I have been reading recently that it makes my reflux worse.

I tried using steroids and it helped a bit, but why bother. Forgot the name, comes in a green case. Sheryl probably knows.

Haha, I might not be in Thailand next year ????

 

Who knows.

What? Not many haters here who like my posts. Stick around and keep my likes high.

We've also been searching for them but they're sold out everywhere. Why the government doesn't do anything to protect us?

morons didn't even show any appreciation that their lives were saved? wow..

Well, they seemed out of breath ????

Curious about something.

I don't know if the guy is guilty or not.

But lets say he gets charged in Thailand. Lets also say the judgement was a bit iffy, not up to Western standards. 

Would this person be charged when he returned to US?

Any comments,   I know I can simply stop eating for a few days and I will loose weight,  but then put it back on again...  It would be all the sugar in my diet.   Just wondering if the juices will help reduce my sweet taste cravings?

I'm not going to take a jab at you because I am the same, but if you don't have the will no juice on the planet is going to help you. 

Personally, I invested 2000b in a good blender, buy frozen fruit from Makro and mix it up with milk and yogurt. I am not losing weight ???? but at least it's a healthier option and it tastes fantastic compared to anything I ever bought in a shop in Thailand or Canada.

My wife likes that also. The essential difference,as I understand is t that ,like Aura and Minere ,are mineral waters rather than the (cheaper) reverse osmosis waters. She found she was getting cramp from the cheaper waters because of the lack of minerals so the natural mineral waters solved that. Heartburn though seems a harder to explain phenomenon.

I understand that Mont Fleur is the only true natural water of the 3. Minere and Aura is tap water with minerals added.

If the bottled water over here is anything like most of the bottled water "back home" (i.e. Canada) then it is literally just tap water in a fancy package.

However, I doubt that bottled water would give anyone heartburn. The food would be the more likely source.

 

It was proven (years ago) that some famous brands of bottled water (like Dasani) was literally the exact same water as came out of taps of every house in the area where the bottled water was being produced.
"In 2001, a WWF study, "Bottled water: understanding a social phenomenon", warned that in many countries, bottled water may be no safer or healthier than tap water and it sold for up to 1,000 times the price. It said the booming market would put severe pressure on recycling plastics and could lead to landfill sites drowning in mountains of plastic bottles. Also, the study discovered that the production of bottled water uses more water than the consumer actually buys in the bottle itself."

"A study of drinking water in Cincinnati, Ohio, discovered that bacterial counts in bottled water were often higher than those in tap water and fluoride concentration was inconsistent."

We set up a bottling plant in Afghanistan as the only other option was to fly in water from Dubai (or Pakistan which wasn't really an option). The water we used was from our own wells and was filtered before getting to the bottling plant where it was filtered again. Technically, our water was cleaner and safer than what was sold on the shelves of stores "back home".

However, even with all that, there was still the issue of the bottles themselves. We had to have strict stock rotation procedures and even had to build covered storage areas to keep the bottles out of the sun as they would start to develop a "taste" after just a couple weeks of exposure.

Now imagine the same thing, in a country were the standards may not be as high, nor as strictly enforced. 

I've had severe heartburn for years (long before I started living in Thailand). I finally went to a doctor (in Thailand) back in 2010 who scoped my stomach and found an ulcer. I was also prescribed medication for acid reflux. Been taking that stuff for over 8 years now and no problem, even when eating extra spicy Thai food.

Last year I'd drink 4-5 liters of water a day in the mistaken belief that I'd be dehydrated if I didn't. This year I've cut down to 1, 1 1/2 liters a day and have had no problems,

 

No affect on the acid reflux either. If I stop the medication (rather - if I forget to take it one day) the heartburn comes back regardless of how much water I drink (or don't drink).

 

Ummm no. Most of the bottled water in Canada is not tap water. It's safe to say that 50% is natural water bottled at the source and the source is mostly in Canada as it is, of course, rich with water. If you buy water from Pepsi or Coca Cola that will be tap water gone through reverse osmosis. 

And yes, water can give you reflux. There are many different reflux issues and sometimes reflux meds and PPI's don't help.  I thought was the only one who had constant GERD problems until I joined a Facebook group. Two members from here were messaging me with the same symptoms.

BTW, taking (what I assume is a PPI) for acid reflux for 8 years may soon give you more problems than the reflux itself. It is one of the most prescribed and dangerous meds on the planet. If taking meds is actually stopping your reflux you should be able to control it with a diet change. Eating spicy food is just insanity if you have this condition, even if you do it once a month.

Do you trust someone who looks like he would sell you some crypro?
