  1. Hi,

    I have been trying to get started a fiancee visa & get married to the U.S. since Jan 2nd.

    Do I first send my 129f along with a marriage status report

    & after aplication is recieved & appt. is made then I recieve my 797 for in packet 3?

    Is the 797 the K1 visa form?

    I have tried all links & have found no downloads for the K1 form ?

    Is this the form that has my finantial disclosure?

    Does anyone know what the minimum in the bank is needed to establish elegibility to support wif till she is issued a green card.

    last question I found a company advertising a public record search for providing a decree of divorce.Dates , place of filing etc. Is this copy good enough for the U.S. Govn.????

    I cannot believe how difficult to just start the process!! I was planning on getting married this year in late june & have changed it to next June 2008 to be more realistic as I know I will not get a visa at this rate till 2010.

    The most I found out was If she was Mexican She would be able to walk across the boarder & by all realistic means never get caught & eventually be granted amnesty.

    Could someone help me at all, I am getting no where quick with the embassy in Bangkok & because of the new changes in Jan. this year my inside help with the embassy is also at a loss.

    Thank you soooooooo much. I know this is the only forum that always has help available! I am so confused about the visa process! :o

  2. Hi,

    I recently tried to get a pin number to make an appointment to get an apointment for my Fiancee to go to the U.S. & found out you need a pin # to make an apointment . the site charged my credit card 3 times (which I used 2 credit cards 6 times, it said invalid address but allowed me to put in a username & Password.

    You are not allowed to talk to anyone in the embassy about visa's as of this Jan. I went down to Rayong from Pattaya to get the pin # & now that I have the pin number I can't access the proper pageto give my pin number.

    The only thing I can get out of the U.S. embassy is a Thai lady who quickly turns me over to an answering machine that tells me nothing that pertains to getting in. And they tell you on the message not to bother to come down in person as you won't get to talk to anyone anyway! I can't believe my own countries embassy is this lame!

    Does anyone have any input on the new changes on how to get an appointment?

    Thanks Beardog :o

  3. Hi,

    To anyone wishing to purchase Colloidal silver I gave out the wrong E-mail address

    Tim Robins E-mail address is

    He offers very good prices & quick shipment from Chiang Mai (not an advertisement just correcting a bad address!)

    Beardog :o

  4. And be careful - there ARE dangers...

    I agree.

    If you use ingest silver salts over a long period of time you may develop argyria (patches of grey skin). This is apparently the case with people who drink colloidal silver that is made from tap or 'purified' drinking water.

    But, if you make coll. silver using pure, DISTILLED water, this cannot occur because there are no salts to form, and therefore little to nothing builds up in your system.

    Silver and its salts have been used as natural antibiotics for thousands of years. It was only when the modern medical/pharma cartels arrived on the scene that it was shoved aside and dubbed as antiquated, or 'quackery'...

    Does anyone know where to get good quality coll. silver here in Thailand?

    Thanks

    You can purchace colloidal silver 20 ppm.(recomended dose) thru Tim robins in Chiang Mai. he runs a health food shop there. he is a very good man & Quite helpfull as well.

    His E- Mail address is [email protected] I purchaced 6 500ml. bottles for 3000 baht & 200 baht to ship post. he will ship by bus or post for you. It is considerably less than U.S. or Europe & the quality is the same. You can also make colloidal silver relatively easy(the hardest part is having the 700 baht worth of silver electrodes. it cost another 900 baht to have it sent to my sisters house in Chicago Ill. USA

    then it is necessary to get sterile water as mentioned the only way you can possibly get algeria is making the water with salt particles in it. To make you can go to www. newfoundationspubl.org/silver.htm(the shepherd's purse) they give a diagram using 3 9 volt batteries(very inexpensive) & gives great testimonials to the use.

    In Oregon & California vetinarians use colloidal silver moreover conventional antibiotics due to the higher sucess rate of treatment. It is safe I would suggest 2 tablespoons for 30-45 days & then 1 tablespoon a day thereafter.

    There are directions on the bottles as well as on the fliers Tim Robins will supply with your order. He is quick & Legit. He had me wire in 3200 baht & 3 days later It was delivered to my house.

    Good luck & great health to you & Happy New year to all of us in Thailand.

  5. ...I was informed I recieved Hep C from a 1985 blood transfusion in California & have been taking colloidal silver for 5 months my viral load 2 weeks ago went down by 50% from 2,400,000 to 1,235,000...

    Have you looked into Dr. Bob Beck's Blood Electrification with microcurrents and EM pulse techniques? I don't have HepC or any other viral infection myself, but this technique, in conjunction with the coll. silver, will apparently virtually eliminate the rest of the virus from your system. That, and virtually any other pathogens, too. Very low-cost, 'do-it-yourself' type of advice. I have a video of a talk he gave some years ago explaining some of these techniques. He was living proof that they worked, being that his blood was tested and found to be totally clean, contain NO parasites/pathogens whatsoever, which apparently is unheard of. He held up stacks of case studies of remissions of all types of viral infections -- ALL suppressed knowledge by the medical and drug cartels (for obvious reasons...). He did this research at his own expense and gave it away for free, being that he was already retired and independently wealthy from his other engineering/science-related businesses and patents.

    There are kits and instructions available on the web for building the devices yourself. Alternatively, there are also sources where you can buy pre-built ones (but they're somewhat pricey).

    Thanks for the info I am looking at the site. Appreciate the input

  6. I'm good friends with a health inspector and they have a team that inspects water factories. The factories have to meet the health standards. If it fails, they are issued with a warning to improve and a follow up inspection is carried out. If the factory fails the follow up inspection it's closed down.

    In Pattaya the white bottles are tap water & the blue bottles are reverse osmosis.

    We buy the white bottles & clean the hel_l out of them & purchase the 5-6 litre nestley or whatever companies good drinking water use & refill with the bottle water at the machines & dump into the big containers.

    I bought a water test kit & Pattaya's water in white bottles failed miserably!!!! The trucks with the good water(blue bottles) charge 300baht for the initial bottle & the white bottles were 90 baht. I know the machine water is much purer than the tap water.

  7. Hi,

    There are a whole miriad of diet pills (mainly appetite suppresants as the Thai govn. heavily frowns on the real thing. most will control the urge to eat & curb your appetite as long as your will is to lose weight.

    My thai girlfriend is presently using a product made by ordain health care pvt. ltd the ingrediants are sibutramine

    hydrochloride monohydrate 15 mpgs & seems to work well. You can get this brand at the drug store in Soi Kao talo after the 1st 7-11 +a half a block further next to the pet shop (only one on Soi kao talo) there is also a pharmacy (a little more expensive) across the street. I would stay away from the expensive tea drinks 9not that they do not work) but you have to take for a long time to work & they are pricey!

    You can find a dietary supplements for about 25-30 baht a pill in 10 pack increments.

    Beware the pharmacies will try to fill you with bull about the pharmacy down the road sells a copy that does not work. most of the ingrediants are identicle & work the same. None have ephederine so0 they are relatively safe on a short term basis.Even more important is your will to lose the weight & to exercise & I know it is extremely dificult as the Thai food here is excellent,but only eating when you are truely hungry is the key.

    I am the same target weight of 67 kilos(153 lbs) since I was 18. I am 5'5" now & have had to remind myself to only eat when my body requires food. I do cheat & occassionally eat a dairy queen small ice cream cone.

    These pills should curb your craving & you most likely can get them at smaller pharmacies in Pattaya as the larger ones want to sell you the 3000 baht dietary supplement drinks. Good luck you can do it! :o

  9. I hear a million and one stories about vallium being freely available over the counter / strictly illegal without a Doctors letter.

    Since giving up drinking I have had a few problems sleeping so I went yesterday to my local chemist to ask if they could help, putting the ball in their court as I did not want to be seen as trying to break the law. "A few vallium is what you need, there you are, just dont be stupid and take several at once" I was told. At no point did the staff look furtive and the shop is on a very busy main road.

    Talking to a friend today, I was told the Chemist risked jail by selling them. Can anyone clear this one up for me once and for all? Legal or not?

    According to the top Pattaya lawer I talked to said if it is sold in the pharmacies (Vaallium or zanex)

    it is legal as the pharmacy is not going to risk jail & losing their business for a nit noi profit.

    My spouse & I have had both prescibed & know better than to buy from the hospital because they jack up the price. As far as the pharmacies go I have not one time every been asked for a prescription for sleeping aids as the Thai government looks as valium & zanex not in the same class as painkillers, till they change the class of narcotic it will be legal. I will occasional eat 2 as the valiums are 5mg. but as suggested use them cautiously as they are addicting(especially if you have an addictive personality)

    Sleep well DON"T WORRY

    It may be worth your interest to check out Colloidal Silver use at www.quackwatch.org

    And be careful - there ARE dangers...

    Quackwatch is currently under investigation by the U.S. government & has 2 pending lawsuits against them by the FDA for reporting inaccurate findings & is sponsored by the major drug companies in America.

    I have a BA in medicine as I was training to be a veternarian.

    Colloidal silver has been used in animal treatment for over 45 years with awesome sucsess.

    It is Sqibb Bristol myers & a half of other drug companies that sponsor quackwatch's Propoganda.

    I was informed I recieved Hep C from a 1985 blood transfusion in California & have been taking colloidal silver for 5 months my viral load 2 weeks ago went down by 50% from 2,400,000 to 1,235,000 & my ast

    (the part of your ast alt test for liver enzymes) has also gone down by 26 points & has shown good signs of liver regeneration.

    And NO I am not turning a blue or siver-blue from taking colloidal silver! I beat cancer 11 years ago &

    was diagnosed with 6 months to go & am still very healthy!

    It just goes to show not to buy into all the negative crap propoganda the drug companies will try to feed you.

    Please do not take this as an insult but I checked into quackwatch & they are in fact quacks!

    Thanks for the feedback.

  12. Hi,

    I live in Pattaya & was wondering if anyone Knows where I might find Medical grade distilled water to make colloidal silver (good for many ailments).

    I found Carrefourre has it in the battery dept. but some of the water looks a little scruffy to be using for ingesting. the 4 hospitals & all the pharmacies don't have a clue when asked in English or Thai.

    I think Chaing Mai might have it & will Be going their soon.

    I just do not want to try to ship 3 or 4 gallons of water from the U.S. for 6000 baht in shipping & not to mention the liquid on a plane scrutiny these days!

    Any one have a clue? Thanks

  13. From many years working in tropical and extreme heat conditions one of things I quickly learnt was to go without underpants. Let the air flow under your normal trousers or shorts.

    I get crotch rot more frequently in Thailand and I believe it’s from the way my clothes are washed. Some laundries don’t rinse the clothes enough to totally rid them of laundry detergent. It’s very noticeable if they’ve been hand washed.

    If I start to suffer from crotch rot I find Nappy (Diaper) Rash Cream works very well and clears it up over night.

    I agree fully with Farma in his assesment in not wearing underwear. I used to live in Hawaii USA & a lot of men got similar rashes due to the same humidity as Thailand. Almost all cases were remedied by ditching the undies & it feels better anyway , Especially in warm climates.

    Avoid baby powders & the like that are suppose to keep you dry, on the contrary it only locks in the moisture & makes it worse!!

    Your Question yesterday is easily answered you can bring in this contry however illegal it is here if you have a valid prescription. I brought Percocet vicodin & lorecet(in the original pill containers) for my back as I am highly allergic to codein & they offer me asprin or morphine & I refuse to use morphine unless I am dying of cancer! If you really concerned bring your medical history(or that portion with you)

    Thailand does not have a clue what western meds are anyway. It is more a question thru U.S. or England

    If it is legit I wouldnt sweat it pumper. Good luck on the rash & try to keep it as dry as you can....Beardog

  14. I am on a prescription medication not legal in Thailand .. it is available in many Thai pharmacies under the counter (Chinese brand at a HUGE markup)

    I get my blood work ordered by my endocrinologist at Bumrungrad & my US doc accepts .. huge savings!

    lab work is so inexpensive at Bumrungrad that I get 'several pages' of exotic specialty lab tests done .. for 1 test my blood must be overnighted to Singapore, as Bumrungrad does not have the equipment.

    My US doc loves the medical records I bring to him, he is from the Philippines.

    My prescription med is valid, is widely used & based on extensive lab work .. I provide far more medical records / labs / tests than the FDA / AMA requires ..

    QUESTION:

    can a retiree bring in his personal valid prescription medications in to the Realm .. I'd gladly jump through any hoops the government might realistically present.

    &

    can I have meds shipped from a US pharmacy into the realm.

    or I could easily bring a 6 months ( or 12 months) supply with me... 12 months of meds would fit in a large FedEx envelope.

    You should be fine I brought over vicodin percocet lorecet for my back & they never even checked. I doubt if they even know what anythingfrom America is anyway. I brought from Sanfrancisco

  16. you cannot obtain narcotics outside hospitals -period.

    your only solution is to smuggle them from cambo on a visa run. i think if you have a script them you will be fine even if questioned.

    ive known many people to both become addicted and build high tolerance to vicodan. its basically heroin and paracetamol

    if you really have such pain problems that need to be monitored by a proper physician, the third world is perhaps not for you.

    cambodia is teh only country in asia where you MAY be able to buy narcotics AND.... they will question you - the candystoer thing is long gone. last year i sprained my ankle and the chemist would only sell mg code 16mg. i was ok laying down but had to make run for border next day. so cant even count on that.

    i think ONLY way is to bring full medical records to hospital (BKKPTY) and get a doc there and get it all in order -but no way they are going to give you vicodan ES 30x per month.

    i personally think if you are taking vicodan 750 a day, youre already addicted.

    ps: im not making moral judgements on you, injury or even drugs.

  17. I would suggest going for your hepatitis A shots. My Thai girl & I both got hep a On our 5 day stay . The roads are Crar Thru sispon . You will experience more ways to get burn't on every

    Stop . They take your thai baht & give you back Us curency at 22-26 Baht back (if your fortunate)

    They will tell you the US dollar is 22 Baht to a US dollar! I am american & live in Thailand Since 2004. Been to 12 countries & would have rather gone to Loas or Vietnam, But My Girls other half of the family lives in Cambodia.She DISLKES Cambodia as well & says its a Key hole(sht Hole)

    The girls are Pompui & mai sooyai.

    I thought ankor wat was way overated & would have rather watched the discovery channel!

    We were sick with Hep A for 1 Year! Their is no place like home!the food is great here & the only money you ever get shorted is moving out of your apt ,condo, or house Or getting Bar fined.

    Go see Bali in Indonesia. It is so much more enjoyable & you won't have to deal with mai dee!

    If you do go take tons of small Baht so you don't lose your wad.

    I am ussually very optomistic in life , But I would rate cambodia as a total limp Hum!
