  1. I had a MRI and the doctor saw some abnormalty in a small area of the prostate and wants to investigate if it is cancerous or not to avoid further complications in the future. Had a turp operation for a large prostrate about 10 years ago With the same doctor and now I have a 5-year-old son. As you all know the prostate grows back again so I'm back with a large prostrate without symptoms but just started taking Finisterre again.
  2. Is this procedure done with a endoscope through the penis or the rectum
  3. Anyone have experience with prostrate biopsy. What is the procedure like, is it painful and how about recovery. After having an MRI scan it showed an enlarged prostrate and small area that may be cancer. So the doctor needs to confirm.
  4. I have a 6:20 a.m. flight and would like to make my re-entry permit before the fight early morning. Anyone have any experience making a re-entry permit early morning at Don Meuang airport
  5. I have another question. How about doing the 90 day report online with the new passport data. Anyone have any experience and Will they accept the new passport information.
  6. Thanks for All the replies and advice. But still not clear from the replies.Do we need to transfer the Visa stamp to the new passport or is it optional to keep it in the old passport and carry two passports when departing and entering the country .
  7. What is the process of transferring a Visa to a new passport. Is there a form I need to download for this and can I make an appointment or walk in only.
  8. I didn't understand the same as you so I sent an email to the embassy and they clarified. You put all the documents and your passport in a envelope then go to the Post office and send it to them preferably EMS or register mail so you can track it. They will send it to the US and when the passport is received by the embassy they will send you an email and a tracking number from Thai post. The embassy didn't notify me when they received my documents so I sent them an email to confirm they received it. So I am waiting for my passport
  9. I received the confirmation email and I checked the status and it hasn't been approved yet
  10. How long does it normally take to get a reply after reporting for 90 day report. It's been one week since I did my report but as of yet have not received a reply.
  11. rabas . do you have the fax number to send form 7162 . I would like to fax it also
  12. I received mine also and mailed today via airmail. Last year sent it by airmail and the second one registered and as far as the tracking never got there. But the regular airmail one was received.Got a receipt when I sent it today and it says us social security on it so I'm wondering is this receipt good enough for proof it was sent
  13. Anyone have experience renewing your US passport in Bangkok. Is mailing to the embassy the only option these days or can you still submit your passport in person at the embassy. If mail is the only option how to survive without your passport during the processing as the passport is needed for many things such as going to the hospital. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
  14. Been taking losartan 50 mg for about 2 weeks for high blood pressure and having some terrible side effects feel weak chest pain tightness and overall lousy feeling. Feel like I have pressure when I'm walking.Tried stopping for one day and felt much better but the second day got chest pain so I started again as it says from the internet cannot stop abruptly. Anyone have experience taking this drug and any advice would be greatly appreciated
  15. I am on a one year type o retirement Visa that's been extended for many years. Thanks for all the information and I see have to get a re entry permit.
  16. I am going out of the country with a retirement Visa that will expire the end of the month. Do I need to get a reentry permit with two weeks left on the Visa after returning. If I do not get the re-entry permit what happens the free entry permit what happens when I return.
  17. Is the first reading more accurate or the second. Do you normally take more than one reading.
  18. What is the blood pressure range that medication is necessary. My blood pressure after a second reading averages about 135 but first reading sometimes around 145 average. My doctor a general doctor prescribed blood pressure medication because when I go to the hospital the pressure can go up to 150. So he prescribed medication for me. But I've been checking my blood pressure at home and its not bad He told me that the new standard is about 120 for a normal blood pressure. Anything over is considered hypertension. How high was your blood pressure that you were prescribed medication. I haven't taken the medication as I am still checking my readings and I am not sure I need medication. Any thoughts? Also my cholesterol and sugar is very good
  19. Does anyone have any experience with Amlodipine blood pressure medication. A general doctor prescribed it for me but he is not a specialist . Are there better medications available and what do most people take
  20. Can anyone suggest a blood pressure monitor for measuring blood pressure at home. I sometimes get a high blood pressure reading when checking at the hospital so I would like to keep track at home to see if I need to see a doctor. I looked at them om Lazad but I don't know how to choose one
  21. I had Turp surgery for enlarged prostate about 8 years ago and have been doing very well with no symptoms. My prostrate has been slowly growing back and now at PSA 3.5 but still doing okay. Start to worry it's growing and I may start having symptoms again as the surgery last about 8 years. Anyone out there have experience with this operation and how long have you been able to say symptom free
  22. I sent the first form 7162 by air mail post and after calling the social security office it was never received. I sent a second form after receiving a second notice by registered mail and after tracking it after 2 months its still hasn't been delivered. I also faxed it. Last night I called social security and they told me again they have not received anything and said they may have received it but it hasn't been scanned into the system. I asked the Lady what should I do and she said she will send me another form on Monday and then try mailing it again. She told me she will make a note in my file and as of this time they have not cut my benefits. When I ask her about how about the fax that I sent she said it's another department and it was never scanned into the system. Anyone have any suggestions what should I do
  23. When I try to connect to Wi-Fi at the airport, hotel ,etc. where they have a login page the login page does not show or I get a message the web page cannot be reached . In the past it was fine but recently cannot access the web page to log into Wi-Fi. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix it
  24. Does anyone have any experience with Thai post international money order in US dollars. Sending the money order by mail to the US is there any guarantee if not received or delivered
