You intentionally got food poisoning? Also, food poisoning can happen not just from bacteria, but from toxins or chemicals getting into the food during prep. That's part of why I rarely eat out anymore. The issue with Cipro is that, while it’s worked for you so far, it doesn’t always do the trick. Sometimes, it doesn't clear up the infection because its nor specifically for stomach bacteria and then the bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics. Next time you’re in Thailand, I’d suggest picking up some Norfloxacin and keeping it on hand, just in case. I always carry some with me. It’s about 50 Baht for a strip of 8-10 tablets (depending on the brand), and the dosage is twice a day for 3-4 days. If you have a choice, go for the Siam brand.

Sounds interesting, thanks. Do you know where I can get a copy from?

Next time go for Norfloxacin, similar to Cipro, but more specific on intestinal bacteria from bad food. It normally stops the worst of the symptoms within 18 hours. But for seafood it can be trickier because you can end up with parasites too. Those two forms of penicillin won't do it for parasites. You would need something stronger like Flagyl.

I got it once from a similar type place in BuaKhao. I suspect it was from the sauce in the wrap. Probably not well enough refrigerated or they kept the sauce for too many days and it went off. I say this because it probably wasn't from the meat or the bread. I always avoid those places now.

My intestines don't seem to agree. But it's true, most of the other times I've gotten it, it's taken about 6-8 after eating the bad food for the symptoms to start. But I've also had a few other times where it did start within an hour too.

Possibly. That's what I suspect. Surprised though that you would find that in a restaurant right in the center of Shanghai next-door to one of the biggest tourist attractions.

Of course. AI photo.

Both photos were AI generated by ChatGPT and aren't real. I thought that was already very obvious.

They moved me to the last row of seats in the plane in the middle section because I couldn't remain where I was seated. It was four seats in a row. None of them were occupied. I ended up lying down on the floor underneath the row of four seat seats.

I can post this photo because it's not too graphic. This was before I was forced to change my clothes.

You want video as well? When does it end with the special requests?

Here is one of the photos from the scene that I posted on the link below. Needless to say, I wasn't looking my best. I didn't want to post it here. Possible compliance issues. https://i.postimg.cc/cHpF1yh3/08-BD472-D-8833-4295-809-C-5970-FE4-D0721.jpg

I can offer even more vivid details, if necessary. I can also provide photos of the scene, for a small fee, of course.

Mine was in Shanghai. Had just visited that big temple in the city center. Can't quite remember the name (might have been the City God Temple Complex). Anyway, right after finishing the visit, we ate at some stir fry noodle joint. It looked fine, kind of like a local fast food place. There were these little strips of pink mystery meat in the noodles and I couldn’t get a straight answer about what the meat was. It didn’t look like chicken or pork. About an hour later I headed to the airport for my flight back to Bangkok. We weren’t in the air for even half an hour before it started coming out both ends at the same time. I completely destroyed one airplane bathroom and then they had to lock it off so nobody else could use it. Then I started demolition work on a second bathroom about thirty minutes later. Between bathroom runs I was lying on the floor under my seat moaning. By the time we landed in Bangkok everything had stopped though and by the next morning I was miraculously fine. I don’t think I’ve ever had it that bad before. Normally when I get it even half as bad I end up needing antibiotics or I wind up in the hospital dehydrated on a drip. But this time it just cleared up literally the next day. All pretty insane.

Not sure how this cannabis saga in Thailand will play out. It’s a coin toss. The government might green-light the newly proposed regulations by the ministry of health or they could still fizzle out before they hit the Royal Gazette. Total wildcard. And with the current government’s shaky ground, plus Thailand's even shakier economy, a new administration coming in could flip the script entirely, again. One way or another, it’s a bloody mess. I’m a regular user, but honestly, I’ve stopped caring much about the outcome. The government’s handling of this has been an embarrassing dog and pony show from the start. If they tighten the laws now, they’ll wipe out over 10,000 local businesses overnight. Between sellers and buyers, that’s potentially millions of people affected. The backlash could be loud, and then the government might end up backpedaling all over again. In the meantime, I’ve stocked up enough to ride this out for a number of months, plus a lot extra tucked away in the freezer for a rainy day if ever needed.

Fantastic. What an absolute marvel you are, Bob. You and Lewie both managed to charm farang beach babes in Pattaya on the very same day. What are the odds? Two seasoned gentlemen, two tales of seaside seduction, all unfolding within 24 hours. Incredible. Unbelievable. Bob-tier brilliance. Dare I say… Amazing Thailand™. And naturally, your decision to share your story tonight had absolutely nothing to do with Lewie’s post going up earlier. Total coincidence. Just one of those magical Pattaya alignments, right?

So says the biggest walking nightmare to ever troll AN. Susan, the great projectionist.

Nobody’s stalking you, Susan. You just post so much crap that it’s impossible not to trip over it. If calling out your rubbish makes you feel “followed,” maybe take that as a sign to stop posting garbage like a deranged attention seeker.

If you weren't here, it would make absolutely no difference to anyone at all. I can assure you. If anything, everyone would be totally relieved by your departure. Oh, what’s that? Are you seriously about to pathetically brag again about your imaginary “popularity” because you’ve racked up more thumbs-downs than any sad soul in history? Truly, your knack for being the internet’s most gloriously unwanted troll is your only claim to fame.

True. It's sad. It was just banned from posting for 48 hours, but it still spent the entire time lurking on the site. It doesn't get any more desperate and lonely than that.

Says the site's biggest troll. Projecting. Get a life.

Agreed. That serial pest doesn't have anyone on ignore. It would be a blessing if it did.

The gay certification authority, obviously.

I've never had the fentanyl and never had the air injection either. In Thailand I think they mainly use Dormicum (a fast acting sleeping pill) together with something else. I'm surprised with the fentanyl you could feel anything though. I've experienced the rest of the stuff you mentioned, but overall it's not too bad. Rarely any pain, unless the scope pokes your intestines too hard. I find the fluid you have to consume that cleans you out before the procedure to be worse than the actual procedure itself.
