He is clearly unfit to cover that position.

Aren't you Americans feeling embarrassed?

How many days before permission to stay expires can you apply for 30 day extension?

My cholesterol was about what yours is. After 6 months of 40mg of Rosuvastatin it was more than cut in half. The doctor then also started me on 10 mg of Ezetimibe which dropped it even lower. I fell SO much better than before I started the Rosuvastatin.

Do you take Rosuvastatin + Ezetimibe togheter at the same time?

Cheers

Have you read it?

Let him/her believe there are ghosts getting around

I'm reading that many schools can manage the conversion from tourist/exempt  to NON-O at your local Immigration office, without leaving the country. You have to pay for it of course, and it's all legal.

Not legitimate if the extension is from a province other than the one you live in

My understanding is that this is the main important crucial point, after reading many and many threads like this one.

Sort of goes against common sense when traveling overseas, especially to unfamiliar location.  Not saying one shouldn't enjoy wearing the jewelry they own, but does raise your flash level of wealth, and open you to petty theft.

 

Unless you consider leaving at home even less secure.

Thanks for your reply, I understand it.

But I'm talking about law/legal requirements, if there're limits and so on.

I'm a man and I don't wear jewelry at all.

I'm bringing the jewelry to Thailand because I want to give them as gifts to my gf (soon wife to come).

Hello,

I have some used jewelry that I own (rings and bracelets in gold and diamonds) and I want to bring them along with me on my next flight from Europe to Thailand.

Do you know if I'm allowed to do so, do I have do declare them or follow some other special procedure?

I'd of course keep them in my hand baggage.

I do not know the exact market value, it should not be more than 20-30k eur, I guess.

Thanks for help

So it seems the minimum length coverage is 60 days (to be on the safe side).

People with u underlying medical conditions can also often get travel policies. Some will even cover acute exacerbations of existing chronic conditions. 

Wow, really? I didn't know it. I thought pre-existing to be hardly covered and very expensive premium in any case.

So maybe there is a travel insurance covering my pre-existing heart condition (1 stent)?

I'm from EU, near 60 yo.

Check to see if this doctor is also at Rajavej, as he used to be. The cost difference will nto be as dramatic as you may hope, but it will be less than Bkk Hospital

Ok I will, thank you.

What is, generally talking, a good hospital in CM apart from Ram and Bangkok Hospital?

McCormick, Lanna Hospital, Sriphat, Rajavej?

Please advise

Indian medical science is pretty advanced and cost very cheap compared to Thailand. Also, staff, nuuses, and doctors all speak english. Sometimes, I think of getting a permanent Indian visa as a qualify to get one as my grandfather was an Indian who migrated to Trinidad and Tobago. But I already have four passports from four countries (USA, Trinidad Tobago, Antigua and Barbosas, and Spain) and never felt the need to to get an Indian permanent visa. And the damn paper works to prove that my grandfather was an Indian discourage me to start the process. 

Thanks for the information, but I'm looking for suggestions on Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Angioplasty in Kolkata (with cost)

 

Of interest (or not)?

No thanks, I'm considering just Chiang Mai.

Thanks to all.

Yes, I know of Ram Hospital, and I think it's more or less as expensive as Bangkok Hospital.

@SherylI know him, he actually did my intervention ???? Very good doctor indeed. Highly recommended. Yes I know that consultation (doctor fee) is cheap in Thailand compared to the West and that medications should not be bought at their (private hospital) pharmacies.

I was just asking if there's a good hospital in CM other than Ram and Bangkok Hospital, in the very unfortunate event I'd need something more serious and urgent than just a consultation. I know for example some people get a second or third stent after the first one (after few years), or maybe a pacemaker (it happened in my close family, stent + pacemaker after about 12 yrs).

Paying 250k bht instead of half a million for an intervention would be a good alternative for me (just as an example), as my insurance at the moment do not cover pre-existing and I don't consider myself so rich to deserve the most expensive hospital available!

Kind regards,

Dear all,

Couple of years ago I had a coronary angiography intervention (1 stent) at the Bangkok Hospital in Chiang Mai, and I'm happy with the service I received.

As we all know it's probably the most expensive hospital in Thailand and, though they are top quality, I'm not that rich.

I'm therefore looking for a more affordable alternative in Chiang Mai for periodic heart checks.

Do you have any suggestion about good cardiologist and/or hospital or clinic?

Thanks and regards,

Isn't insurance required when you do visa (exempt) 30 day extension?

Dear all,

is this statement from the Minister of Public Health valid or not?

This is very important in my opinion.

Thanks

I had a quick look and it seems both STV and METV are available:

If I were you I'd talk to an agent in PP asap about getting a TV.

Good luck

Look at this one for example:

https://www.lumahealth.com/travel-insurance/covid-insurance/

It covers till 365 days

There's so many insurance companies out there!

Or this one: https://www.tuneprotect.com/airasia/ipass/index.php

Or https://www.acs-ami.com/en/travel-insurance/globe-traveller/

etc etc

If you really don't know what to do, just ask a broker, I've seen on this forum that AA Insurance Broker is often mentioned as a good one.
