  1. Currently I'm being prescribed medication by the ton for Asthma. Asthma, or COPD, I do not believe I have. I went down the same road about 4 years ago. Different doctors different diagnosis. I need a definitive answer not have me wasting money on meds that don't work. I was led to believe a CT scan would do that.
  2. No and I didn't realise I need a doctors order. It does look like I'm gonna have to look at this problem in a different way. The doctor I'm seeing at the mo is a government doctor but it doesn't mean he's not knowledgeable. He's limited on his advice on what to do next so that's why I'm here. I'm now considering the Suranaree University of Technology in Korat as there's no way I'm going to Bangkok. Thanks both for your opinions and advice.
  3. Nor Noi Grass หญ้านวลน้อย Needs lots of water hence your patches.
  4. I think that if you leave it it will grow back. That's how I grassed my garden. Whatever grew I just kept cutting back until the weeds died and all blended in. This is a picture in about May when the grass starts to grow after the dry season.
  5. Whatever it takes to show what I'm diagnosed with, which is Asthma. I had a CT scan done about 4 years ago and no Asthma was found then. Now I'm getting the same symptoms as 4 years ago and the doctor's telling me I have Asthma without seeing a CT scan. Before he diagnosed Asthma he said I had COPD. Hence why I need a CT doing to be sure.
  6. I know most of the hospitals in Korat do CT scans but does anyone know at what cost? I don't really want to phone around and I was hoping someone would on here would know the simple answer and a recommendation. I need a scan to detect if I have asthma. Thank you.
  7. What did you eat for the other half?
  8. Do not feed the Troll. He's seen them but wouldn't write home about them. Unless you taste them which appears you haven't then you should keep your opinions to yourself.
  9. No I mean real bread. There 3 Makro around where I live and they all carry the bread. Have you looked on the bread section? https://www.makroclick.com/en/category/bakery-and-bakery-ingredients/shop-bakery/sliced-bread-european-bread
  10. If you have a Makro nearby you can buy good bread and baguettes there.
  11. Why pay if they don't give you a receipt? Most traffic fines are about 500 Baht. Just about the figure you will pay the copper in tea money. Pay the extra and get a receipt.
  12. The answer is yes unless otherwise indicated with a sign. Just found the law.
  13. As ferangs it's in our nature to complain. By moaning and complaining we work off a little steam and we feel better for it. As they say 'get it off your chest'.
  14. And that is correct. But if no ticket is issued then you do not pay. Get the ticket first. Pure and simple. Stop writing tosh. No wrong again. All tickets issued come with the value and you can't be treated any differently than to a Thai person.
  15. I think you'll find yourself to be wrong. Hence why Thailand is increasing traffic fines by up to 4 fold.
  16. Old thread. Must have the shoes by now?
  17. And Thais need to be notified that the breakdown lane/hard shoulder is not a motorcycle lane. Many Thais think that's its purpose.
  18. All depends on size of property and how many inhabitants.
  19. Senior police officer, where I live, decided to park his pickup in a shop after a night of drinking.
  20. Road signs will make no difference whatsoever. The school near me has a signed limit of 30km. I'll lay odds that the limit is not adhered to 100%. No parking in the hard shoulder. Will that be obeyed? The list is endless. What they need in my opinion is tougher fines and the enforcement of collecting those fines. I think the majority of fines are not paid.
  21. How do you get a good cleaner in Thailand? Our cleaner is <deleted> but my wife won't fire her even though she says the same. Our cleaner lives in a shack with her hubby and children and has no personal pride which is obvious from the state of her residence.
  22. Unfortunately out in the rural areas the laws are not going to be obeyed by the police or the locals. The police are integrated within the families through marriage etc that they're not going to rock the boat and upset them. Family come first in Thailand.
  23. They have what was known in my day as 'short, back and sides'. In my military days there was a saying by an NCO 'what's under your hat is yours. The rest is mine.'
