remember..... probably an equal number of farangs that have been left with little , after the girl (thai or farang) decides to take them to the cleaners . how many guys build a house and give access to assets that they accumulated over many many years.............. to someone they know for a very short time? Of course...... they should know better. And often they repeat it again ! Kind of like playing the roulette wheel and losing. They double down

Nobody cares .............

Actually i was just thinking........ of offering consulting services regarding "how to be the middle human. " (not the perfect human) . The procedure would be to evaluate the physical/ mental/ and emotional status of an individual and then I ..RUMAK... would suggest ways to improve what exists. Disclaimer: this procedure requires a lot of listening and little talking. (as both can not be done at the same time) . Periodic follow ups would be advised as Rumak himself is always evolving (less slowly now .. in my golden years :-)............. . I do not do "serious reading" , but i enjoy hearing others opinions if presented in a 25 words or less format . Keeps me balanced : rolling eyes, laughs, and neck stretching . Yours truly..... Rumak

Oh boy, BigStar...... we're giving the old goats some real fodder to throw at us ! 55 Obviously everyone has different physical (and mental) conditions to work with . That said, the body has an incredible ability to correct and improve ..... and of course takes time and effort . Any discussion of what to do and what to eat to achieve better health always ends up in arguments. haha Your wife is in great shape.... and I certainly envy her flexibility ! My gf is also impressed !

my gf was a bit "pudgy" when i met her (9 years ago) ..... She's coming along pretty well (now 50) and Rumak ? same petit size as when 20 (now 72)

Yes, I now tell my GF to start first ...... I'll join her in a bit ????

only for if i trip falling down the stairs ......

Indeed, OP does appear to be "panicking" , which older people do sometimes. Maybe he had private PM with Sheryl.... but the posts i read were answered by some , saying calm down. That rarely does calm someone down. My experience from not being aware of hep C (no symptoms for a long long time) to almost dying from it ) will always have me suggest to older adults to include the very inexpensive testing for Hep C . when doing a regular blood test.

My god ! Oh, i forgot, most guys haven't been here as long as i have. My first house took about 4 months from start to finish. Now that I have adapted to the Thai way ( sabai sabai) my latest home sweet home took just 3 days . And I never have to tell my guests to be careful not to scratch anything !

I will let the CDC ( a source even you might recognize ) answer why i suggest adults do this very simple blood test . https://www.cdc.gov › knowmorehepatitis › hcp › Screen-All-Patients-For-HepC.htm Screen all adult patients for hepatitis C | CDC Hepatitis C can be cured; testing is the first step. Why Test All Your Adult Patients? New cases of hepatitis C are on the rise, particularly among reproductive age adults. Rates of new HCV infections increased by more than 60% from 2015 to 2019. And in 2019, more than 63% of HCV infections occurred among adults 20-39 years of age. Furthermore : Should I get tested for hepatitis C? - Harvard Health A. Hepatitis C is a viral disease that causes inflammation of the liver. The CDC reports that 75% of all current cases of hepatitis C are in the baby boomer genera tion and many more are undiagnosed. The reason is that a vast majority of people have no symptoms,

i had "slightly elevated" enzyme readings for 20 years ....... before they shot up and i got very ill. I finally took a hep c test on my own ! i had hep c ! why such a nasty response to me just saying that he should get a SIMPLE blood test ? really !

I remember you putting in a lot of effort ....researching , then hiring people to removate the condo . Can you give us members an honest appraisal of how it all went ? the good and the bad ....

good info ........ i would just add : "a good hepatologist " . my experience with specific health matters is I try to educate myself a little ....... then seek an "expert" . or two ! blindly following a health practioner is not my way of doing things. thats just me : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov › 29763131 Medical Error Reduction and Prevention - PubMed Dec 4, 2022Medical errors are a serious public health problem and a leading cause of death in the United States.

This member has been trying to get the OP and others to get a simple test for HEPATITIS C . Actually everyone should add it when getting a standard blood test . If you test positive then you definitely need to read up on it. There are pills now that kill the virus.... still very expensive and I am not sure if available in Thailand . It can take years, decades even,, for symptoms to show.. but Hep C is a serious disease. Yellowtail is giving the best advice . First get a test !!

i expect a lot of laugh emojis on this topic ........ right up there with the measures implementing the "quality of air" .

Simon, best of luck. My comment here is not directed at you... but rather at the issue of Health Insurance companies. I followed most of your posts, so am i correct in saying that the (what you thought was good) insurance that you had was not so? And, i imagine a lot of stress dealing with the issues with them and or brokers. I chose not to deal with these crooks ( yes, sometimes it works ok) ........ but started saving money when i was 40 so that i could make decisions myself, seek different avenues myself. and yes Pay Myself. You are fortunate to have a plan B ... but it does involve a big change . My decision to self insure has worked out well for me. Not everyone will have the same results ..... insured or not

Remember, pick the girls depending on their age (and yours ) . If you are an older guy might be wise to go with the girls over 30 ...... as they walk slower when taking you to the ATM .

two impossibities in one post LOL

When i went to the ENT I had a very unusual problem. But thankfully I went to the best specialist available . I still have his expert report which cost me an arm and a leg. DR: Patient has what we refer to as reverse pattern psychosis : His Nose runs.... and his feet Smell

Be sure you don't post in any bold letters because then he will really give you a good scolding . ????

exactly............. and still using the same old lies like " the majority of experts agree" ..... There are plenty of live tapes showing major govt officials giving false information "based on the accepted experts opinion" . And the twitter posts and others show proof of the intent of government to censor opposing views . Which have now been shown as the Correct truth.

I used to, like most people, trust what the governments and media said . But when I felt something was not true , and history showed how many lies governments and big companies have told ....then i started to read different opinions . When one side tries to silence other opinions....... that is a big red flag . The greatest trick someone in the wrong tries to pull is putting the blame on someone else. Ahh, and then the "misinformation" and name calling.

actually..... seems like a Lot of the posters here who tried to belittle those whose "sources" were previously deemed not reliable..... are waking up. No apoligies , of course. The "facts" are still the same. Just the "misinformation spreaders" have been reversed

hmmmm maybe young and fat ??
