  1. I have had Vertigo for years. And yes I can have headaches with it. And I have been treated by doctors and given tests to rule out anything else. I can tell you yes it’s probably just vertigo. But I won’t because I’m not a doctor. And vertigo is a general symptom that can be caused by anything. You need to see a doctor. Not be looking for opinions. It won’t solve the problem and will likely confuse you.
  2. It might be difficult to somewhat understand since this person is explaining things from a medical standpoint. Not from a layman’s perspective. And this person appears to be a dentist by the wording of some of their comments. Every medical professional has their own opinions and treatment methods. This person is giving theirs by backing it up with specific medical information. Not just layman’s opinion.
  3. I have had GERD for many years. I don’t take your specific drug but a similar one each day. My GERD is due to a hiatal hernia. You should be taking a calcium supplement. The class of drugs we need to take can deplete your calcium level. Which is what happened to me. And a gastroenterologist confirmed this as the cause.
  4. A person that stays slim is by genetics , diet, and exercise. It doesn’t matter what country you are from. It depends how you take care of yourself. Of course being overweight can be due to health related issues also.
  5. Many hotels will have a small gym with dumbbells. If an Airbnb in a condo building it will most likely have a small gym. And depending on the type of exercises you do I doubt one dumbbell with the same weight will be enough lol. But I don’t know your exercise routine. I’m guessing you at least want different weights to exercise different body parts. Keep in mind if you purchase a set of dumbbells. You would either have to carry or ship them home or leave them there. I lived in Bangkok recently for a few years. I go to gym’s regularly. You could look into a Jett’s gym. I was a member there. Some gyms don’t give monthly membership. And if you are only exercising with a couple of dumbbells will be too costly. Lastly there is a free phone app called FitTripper. It has gyms in Bangkok. It will give prices and duration. You join through the app.
  6. Sorry I can’t recommend the type of bar with music you are looking for. But I would recommend doing a google search and considering a different district. Sure Nana has bars with music. But it is basically an area to meet freelancers. Because the area is loaded with them. And you seem to be focused on music, not the Nana type of scene.
  7. Against the law air not. Morally it’s wrong. So for example it’s ok for a 70 year old man to have sex with a 15 year old? Because the age of consent is 15? And of course some people on here condone sex with someone who would be considered a minor because it’s legally permitted. And I bet many are living here or visiting because of that mentality. So if you are in Thailand do your own country a favor. Stay in Thailand. Because your own country probably doesn’t want you there anyway.
  8. Money is not the only thing in life to make a person happy. But if you do have enough money it can make you happy. By doing what you enjoy.
  9. It depends what type of credit card you have not charging international fees. I used mine for things because there were no fees. And I was getting mileage points
  10. If a person is depressed and shows signs of it there has to be an underlying cause. Which possibly the person is not aware of.
  11. A so called genius girl is going to want to meet someone with similar intelligence. I doubt they will be on Thai Friendly or similar sites. And they would probably be successful and want stimulating conversation. Not meeting men that have limited social skills and basically just vegetate all day.
  12. If someone wears a mask it is of no one’s concern. People in Asia have worn masks for different reasons long before Covid.
  13. You can enjoy life almost anywhere. And as for being with a younger woman. . It depends on the woman . In western countries you can have one as long as you have stability and a decent personality. And a decent income would help also. The difference in Thailand is a 1000 usd per month income makes you look like a millionaire.
  14. There are violent acts committed in every country. But Thailand seems to have it’s fair share. On Thai news programs there are numerous violent acts every day it seems. And this topic is about Thailand. I find that people who interject criticism about other countries. For the most part are the ones that couldn’t make it in western countries.
  15. And don’t forget to still tip if the driver refuses to use the meter. Especially if the driver wants 200 baht for a three minute ride
  16. Your fiancé mentioned this? Where did she get that information? I’m in the states. I contacted two Immigration Attorneys here to inquire about K1 Visa. I’m retired and nothing was mentioned I had to be employed. Both attorneys were aware I was retired. But I’m sure you have to have sufficient finances. There are many factors involved
  17. I guess only foreigners do these types of things. But Thais don’t.
  18. It’s great that you improved your lifestyle and it has worked for you. And you are aware what supplements to take and works for you. I recommend to have routine blood work just to see if any deficiency shows up. Some people will criticize you for some of the things you are doing. Because they just don’t want to improve their lives. Keep up the good work and stay healthy.
  19. Probably no change in 20 years. Still whining about how everything delt them a bad hand in life. Getting by on barebones income. And major hobby is drinking booze.
  20. You are lucky in your relationship with your wife. Unfortunately what you described and even parts of it are so true.
  21. I remember they had these types of shows in the 1970’s and I believe early 1980’s in NYC. But in this particular case it isn’t clear what was done.
  22. Sounds like a history of disfunctional behavior to me.
  23. Thailand appears to have bad quality brakes on there vehicles. Seems to be a very popular excuse, I mean reason
  24. Would it be that much of an issue if the tenant was Thai?
