That doctor you mentioned here is the expert i should see for consultation then?

Basically I will immediately notice the heart palpitations like something is off. It always starts like that. Then after 20-30 mins or 1h or never, it might also have rapid heart beating. This feeling is different. If that happens, again my ECG shows me these if I grab it. In the rapid heart beating, I saw it go up as high as 170 beats and feeling a bit warm in the head as it goes higher and then the warmth is gone when it drops back down. Before I reckon even higher beats where my eyes were almost going full dark but then reverted back down. But then this cycle of up and down can repeat so many times as long as a few hours. I didnt have ECG then to confirm these. But not always I get the rapid beating. Mostly it's the irregular beats where I hear skipped beats or closer beats in the ECG sound. I guess also sometimes the beatings might be strong enough that if I am lied down I will feel my body almost moving sideways because of the movement of the heart. Sometimes 2 months nothing but sometimes 5 days in a row. Doing exact same things don't always trigger it.

I asked them for an event recorder they said they only have holter that can record up to 7 days it and it had something like a screen so bigger than that but she also said i cant shower for 7 days. she asked if that's ok.

That's also why I am surprised because before he said I need holter for confirmation but when I asked isn't both ECGs the same, he said 10 mins is short but then he said we can do ablation. So not sure if they just want to get the money. AI report said I have those but in the report they said paroxysmal afib and PVC. He was saying you can use cold if you like cold but later said heat is better because he can fix both issues. For me it always seem to happen after eating some big heavy carb meal later in the evening, because I dont eat much early on so I might eat a big meal at 8-9pm and this happens then but not always. Sometimes i can even bigger meals and nothing happens, but when it happens I noticed always when I finish the meal or almost finish it. Also the doctor said it's better you do ablation so these episodes dont turn into more serious complications.

I tried to contact AOC but their website also is a bit iffy. They just have a 1 line message contact form. Not sure if that's what you contacted them @Sheryl?

I went to the doctor and he saw the results. Their tests are ok. Just have to do holter. The trick is the catch the episodes because one day you might have SVT another day PVC etc. I think i was able to capture different events in 2 days but i didn't have holter. Event recorder is better but they didn't have it.

I contacted them recently and got a reply saying AA World will look into this and come back to me. Before it was very prompt replies by them.

How much do you reckon ablation for afib would cost at Bumrungrad? BPH quoted 700K. Also do you know if using a personal medical ECG device is enough for diagnosis? Almost like a holter but have time limit like 10 min for each recording. Using holter i never managed to capture episodes. Doctor said it's better to confirm and 10 mins is too short. And the AI analysis in the software of the device i have says my ecg have everything under the sun like Afib, PAC, PVC, Ventricular tachycardia, couplet PAC/PVC, supraventricular tachycardia, etc. That's why i showed them to a specialist. He said heat ablation is better for you than cold to fix both of the issues be identified in the graph but no issues in ultrasound or treadmill.

How to change brokers? You just tell AA to transfer your profile to AOC?

Would April intl pay for this if you only have IP?

Hi, If you have to do ablation procedure for afib which hospital would you recommend from the two? Or is there a better hospital to go in Thailand for this procedure? Thanks a lot in advance.

Can someone request this doctor for this operation?

Isn't the cheapest elite four 5 years is 1M now? I think it's a huge difference.

What happened to those people? Their visa become invalid or they couldn't get any other visa afterwards?

I think they don't want to publicize this visa too much but if you ask them privately they will let you know.

I have a feeling it's the same thing my friend told me. There isn't so much info about this beside a few threads on reddit. I think it's relatively new.

It's also mentioned here by someone else. It's from thai visa center. I thought that place was advertised here a lot.

Yes I was actually planning to get the 5y for 600K but I wasnt aware they were going to bump up the price so much higher. Otherwise that would have been a very good deal.

I was quoted 110K for the first year because of the initial things that needs to be done.

He has that visa. Just asking if it's a good visa to get instead of ED or setting up actual company through a lawyer. That makes sense. Another friend said he set up an actual company by a lawyer so I guess that's more legit compared to this one.

Hi, One of my friends told me there is a visa agency making these visas just like described here: Is this legit visa? Anyone has used this before? I don't know if this one is worse than the business visa where you set up some company, etc? Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot. The website says it's only available for bkk only so that's not applicable to my location: pattaya. I will see if there are other ways.

Lazada actually. Where can I find these collection points? I didn't know about this.

Hi, For example if we are not in the country for a time and don't have a condo, and want to ship items that might not fit a regular mailbox, are there rented places we can use for this purpose? It's not always easy to find a friend who is willing to let you use his address. It won't pile up boxes at this place but more like there might be a package once a month where I could pick it up shortly after. Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance.
