Would Pattaya Wednesday, Athletic, or Rovers not have been more imaginative than a name associated with THAT lot! And then play in blue shirts.

Bring the pale blue and white hoops back for the shirt. Classic kit.
What kind of crowds do they get?
What % of fanbase are expats, apart from you?
Any overseas players?

My guess is they'd be ecstatic to see someone walk through the door.

So for a book is a worse reason to shoot someone, the other reasons are OK....

Of course that's not true but what is true is:
Most of the worlds terrorist acts are by muslims - but obviously not all muslims are terrorists.Excellent point. And that's why we shouldn't make sweeping generalisations such as "that mob" when most Muslims aren't terrorists or shoot people.

Guess what, my chest hurts too! It is because of the high levels of SMOG. I suggest relax and try some deep breathing, go somewhere else..

Any level above 50mcg is considered unsafe as long-term exposure is linked to chronic diseases, including lung and heart problems.
“The BMA is urging city residents who have difficulty breathing, eye inflammation, chest pain, or headaches after going outside to see a doctor.”
Thanks but i don't live in Bangkok

With chest pain the main differentials are:
1. Cardiac cause (angina, heart attack). This is an emergency but would usually be described as a crushing pain/pressure and more often on the left. Can't exclude this but your description does not raise immediate alarm bells.
2. GERD (reflux). Your mention of burning and of it being triggered by lying flat or bending over is suggestive of GERD though there would usually also be some throat discomfort/burning. Reflux is common in older people and people of any age if overweight. Also often linked to caffeine intake.
3. Gastritis. Consistent with location and description of the pain but not so much with being worse lying down or leaning over.
Gastritis and GERD can coexist
4. Muscle spasm or injury - in that location this would be usually be what is called costochondritis though that pain is usually described as sharp. Most often there would be a history of injury or strain before the onset. Strain could include things that required upward movements of the arm or twisting of the torso. Rowing, weight lifting, various sports can cause it. So can severe coughing. Any history of these?
5. Least likely would be an issue with the lungs. Can't rule it out but I would start with other possibilities first.
If it were me-- and assuming there was no strain or injury that preceded this -- I'd start by seeing if antacids and PPIs (omeprazole etc) give relief. In the case of antacids you'd be looking for temporary improvement whereas PPIs would give longer relief or prevent the pain altogether. I would also avoid lying or bending over for 2 hours after eating. If these things work then GERD and/or gastritis is likely cause but to be sure would need endoscopy. Also should exclude h. Pylori, common cause of gastrutis. For this would see GI specialist.
If you do have a history of injury or strain that might have inflamed chest muscles, rest and NSAIDs usually do the trick but be very careful re NSAIDs as if the problem is gastrits it will make if much worse. Also there are contraindications to NSAIDs that should be researched before taking.
If the pain becomes severe and if there is any radiation to left arm or shoulder these are signs of posdinle heart attack and shoukd go at once to hospital.
Thanks....
No history of chest muscle injury but I do play squash and tweak things quite often
No other symptoms. Just a pain in my upper back / neck at about the same level

Need get BP checked, at least rule out immediate cardiac/heart attack issue if normal range 120s/60s range.
At least go to clinic fast & cheap, or gov't hospital, and probably parking a hassle, but can walk in and their machines are usually their in waiting area.
Stick arm in take BP, if high, have a seat, wait 20 mins and do it again. Any other cardiac/heart attack symptoms ?

Can you please describe the pain more clearly:
1. Where in the chest do you feel it exactly? You say middle but how high up,? Does it extend to base of the throat?
2. What does the pain feel like? Burning? Cramping? Achy? Pressure etc?
3. What if anything seems to releive it?
1. No not up to the the throat. About level with the nipples.
2. It's more of an aching or burning
3. Not tried much yet but am trying some gaviscon now. Will report back

Of course. But that's quite a premmature comment a few minutes after I have posted something. In fact, there are plenty of people with a good medical knowledge on here, and I have got some sane advice from posters here over the years.
But I agree, nothing can substitute advice from a medical professional.

I play a lot of squash which can involve doing pretty intense movements and stretching into unnatural positions

Felt this for a few days, particularly when lying horizontally or bending my upper half.
Apparently the likely cause could be heartburn (my diet has been pretty bad + drank a lot of booze in last couple of weeks)... or could it be muscular?
How long before I should get more concerned?

This might not end well. Britain's navy is now severely depleted and no PM was as tough as Maggie. I'm sure the Argies know this and realise that they can take the Falklands by force and Britain will be unable to do anything about it.
And anyway. It says they want to renegotiate. Not try and retake the islands.

There used to be one along from Makro. Troika, I believe it was called. Might still even be open as I saw people entering when I drove past a few weeks ago.
Yeah that's basically the one I mean. Good Borscht from there.
