  1. I can't believe you're still rambling. Amazing stamina. Oh, and boring.
  2. Calling me out. Are you sure you're not wearing blinkers? I might be racist, but I'm not sure. But I certainly wouldn't take any notice of the opinions of the looney left. I don't particularly like blacks, Indians, Chinese, Russians, Muslims, gays or any religious zealots. And that's because, unless I relate to them one on one, they probably don't like me. I'll never be a member of their culture.....and that could apply to Thailand, even when married!
  3. You can't be serious? Better food, but from Indians, not Africans, better music... you're having a laugh, and better athletes....who gives a toss! Oh, I forgot; more frequent and more successful stabbings, and more drugs.
  4. With your faith in human nature, I'm surprised you haven't applied for the position as the new Dalai Lama!
  5. They don't drain haematomas anymore. They can be a real nidus of infection.
  6. Lucky you didn't go to a vet. They'd euthanase you for that. Augmentin is usually the Ab. of choice.
  7. I bought a unit in Bankstown. An interesting multi-cutural suburb. Perfect for my long term medical treatment, if it ever comes to that. Good shopping and fast transport all over Sydney. Very few "good" suburbs left. They're all inundated with immigrants now. Unless of courses you live amongst the boring religious snobs in their McMansions somewhere like the Hills district!
  8. Any doctor in A & E will tell you that if it wasn't for alcohol, their job would be a doddle!
  9. It's a thin metal cover cemented over broken down deciduous teeth. Helps keep the spaces and stops drifting, and then ready for the permanent teeth. Not for you. I'd think about a chromium-cobalt partial denture for the top. Perhaps a 1 tooth acrylic denture for the bottom. Unless you want to pay 150,000 baht for implants!
  10. Sukhumvit Hospital is private. (Next to Ekamai). Go to Bangna intersection, go up Samphawut towards the river, (about 1.5 kms.), and at the traffic lights, on the left, drive in to the new Bangna Hospital. Next to the new Electricity Authority. Never busy.
  11. I believe Eliquis, (apaxiban), is the best of these new anticoags.. $6+ per month in Oz. for us. Approx. 5,000 baht p/m here. But if you can't get home every 6 months, India has a generic, called Apigat. Aud $150,with postage, for 3 months supply. Warfarin is a pia. Stop 1 week before surgery, and always problems with clotting levels. So unless they've given you a pig's heart, go with Eliquis. As an aside, I was going to Oz in April, but couldn't make it because of the pain. Have my hip replacement surgery on Tuesday. Fingers crossed!
  12. Are you on Warfarin, with a clotting time like that? I don't think the new anti-coagulants are as bad as Warfarin.
  13. One of the rescue workers here got bitten by a cobra. (They come and catch snakes as well). Went to Soi Dao hospital, but no anti-venene. Drove to Chantaburi Hospital, (1 hour), but he died on the way!
