  1. If it persists and that severe you should see a doctor. Could be caused by so many different issues. Might have to also use a stool sample for diagnosis. And other lab testing. Very important to keep yourself hydrated in your condition.
  2. The time it takes to really get to know her, trust her, feelings, is based on the individual’s. No one can give an answer. Keep in mind that she is still married. And has personal issues. I would advise you to find someone else and not get involved with her. Just for the reason she is married. Find someone whe is more stable and not married.
  3. To the OP. Unfortunately things like this happen especially in large cities. Especially that attract tourists. They probably viewed you as a tourist that didn’t know any better. It could have happened to anyone. And the people that criticize you about it happening to you. Well if it happened to them they would be the first to whine about it.
  4. I have eaten dim sum . Both in Hong Kong and Beijing. And also in the states. Never had an issue. But I just didn’t go anywhere to eat it.
  5. From what I understand. You are using something called free clip grab app? That’s what is probably blocking some of the things. You dont know what third party apps can effect when using them
  6. Basically you can have bad neighbors in any part of the world. I would just try to ignore the guy. But if he makes it a habit of staring at you for 20 minutes . You can ask him what he is looking at. But he probably won’t understand what you are saying. And he sounds like he’s screwed up to begin with. He might start a physical confrontation with you. If the neighbors are that bad. You probably should consider moving. I know easy to say but sometimes not easy to do.
  7. These two women are the female version of dumb and dumber. Just another example of visitors coming to another country thinking they can do whatever they want
  8. Unfortunately just another expat or tourist. Has nothing much going for them in their own countries. So they come to Thailand thinking their life is going to change. And the Thai government is going to take care of them. iIf you are a loser in your own country. You will be a loser here too. And Thailand is not responsible to take care of you.
  9. I’m sure this will effect tourism and the some of the expat population in the LOS. Cheap Charlie tourist and expats. But they can afford to buy marijuana
  10. To your question about requesting a colonoscopy on your own. Yes you can tell a doctor you want one. But if you are saying you just want a colonoscopy and no other tests. Even though the doctor says you need them. From your test history it sounds like you have an underlying medical condition and symptoms they are try to narrow down. And needs to be monitored. You can try to make your own medical conclusions. And think they are just trying to make money on you. But you are risking your health. And that is up to you. If you think the doctor is questionable. Get a second opinion
  11. Basically you need to make a will with your wishes. You can have an attorney do it in Thailand . And you should also discuss this with your family.
  12. There are many people in society that have mental health issues. Some just go to counseling. Some have to take medication. And unfortunately some severe cases have to be institutionalized. Problems arise when the person stops taking their medication. One study on depression shows: While you may not realize it, this persistent anger could actually be a sign of depression. Some people living with depression notice increased feelings of anger and irritability, directed both toward themselves and others. So it is quite possible she is actually suffering from depression.
  13. Your systems could be caused by a number of different things. Including Covid. Antibiotics will not do anything if it’s viral. Only if it’s bacterial. The only way to diagnose it is seeing a doctor. Especially with the type of symptoms you have.
  14. I have a hiatal hernia also for many years. It causes acid which I take medication for. I have had stuffy nose issues over the years. Not often. The symptoms would be upon awakening. Mine is attributed to allergies. The only thing I can recommend is try a nasal irrigation kit if you can find one. Ask a good pharmacy. It will have saline packets, and irrigation bottle. You mix the saline powder in the bottle with warm distilled water. Do not use tap water. Do it in the morning and before you go to bed. The kit should have instructions how to use it. If the problem continues. I suggest you see an ENT. A stuffy nose should have nothing to do with your hiatal hernia or stomach
  15. One could say everyone is a little bit crazy. It’s a matter of opinion about an individual. But from some of the things posted on the forums by certain people. I would say some are either bored, starved for attention, or have mental health or alcohol issues. Or a combination of such.
  16. I mostly used Food Panda when I lived in Bangkok. And after about two years I had the same message. But it was the opposite. I couldn’t use my credit card on file from my USA bank. There is a customer service number you can call. I haven’t used Grab for about a year. Don’t know if anything changed. I did find a customer service number. 02 021 2515 I t should have an English option. I did call customer service a few times when I lived in Thailand
  17. Not saying what the guy did was ok. But when I lived in Bangkok I saw many locals do outrageous things too. Maybe they also be punished to the fullest extent of the law. It doesn’t matter what nationality who does something wrong. These types of stories are just made to make foreigners look bad.
  18. So he shared the videos with their friends, colleagues, and family? I guess these women gave him all the information how to contact these other people. Very odd . And for the American bashers, including other western countries, on here. Maybe they should look at themselves. Because in reality they are in Thailand because they didn’t have much going for them in their own countries. Both socially and economically inept.
  19. You did well for your family. Helping the daughters to be successful. And the daughters now wanting to make your life comfortable. Maybe you can compromise with the wife . You can suggest possibly staying in Thailand a certain amount of time each year. Dont listen to the comments about leaving her. If you are happy in your marriage you can compromise.
  20. The ladyboy had to steal an expensive necklace. But also can afford 300,000 baht to repay the victim.
  21. The OP might have old age. But at least he has the intelligence to take care of his health and ask intelligent questions. More so than some people on here
  22. Maybe they are looking for stable successful men that have a good income that they can rely on. Im surprised they didn’t come to Thailand to find foreigners lol.
  23. What is a valuable tourist? I didn’t think tourists considered themselves valuable
  24. It all depends the type of marriage visa you are considering. There is CA 1 and K1. The CA 1 takes longer. And as for her only getting a menial job in the United States. That depends on certain factors. Of course if she is not educated and can’t speak English well enough. She probably will get a menial job. And even if educated but her English skills are poor. Her job prospects will be restricted. But if she is educated and can communicate. Her prospects can be good. If you have assets I would suggest a prenup. I would suggest consulting an Immigration attorney. Preferably in the United States. And keep in mind . Immigration attorneys in the United States do not do prenups. You would have to consult a Family Law Attorney for that. It’s like some of the expats in Thailand. They have barebones income and not much savings. Because they worked at menial low paying jobs in their respective countries. So they end up with nothing. But blame their respective countries for their personal shortcomings. Always have to ridicule Western countries every chance they get
  25. That’s what happens when some tourists or expats can barely afford anything. They will steal
