  1. Rosuvastatin 10 mg more or less the same = Simvastatin I take 10 mg per day - Buy 20 mg and cut in halve.. Price 46 baht for strip of 10 [local government Hospital] = cut in halve = 20 days !! -Tadalafil never taken so no idea
  2. To heavy = it cannot be driven on a Thai Car License
  3. The latest appear to be from +697 a search shows this number is VOI Myself never answer my phone unless it is a number in my phone - bad luck if you were a scammer Myself had 2 this week, many friends have also had them, the voice on the other end sound like one of there friends or Business Customer, they told me
  4. Many of the cheaper Windows 11 PC/Laptops state " Operating System: Windows 11 Home Single Language" Maybe good ? in Big C Acer Ryzen 3 - 15.6" 1920x1080 Laptop Windows 11 Home Single Language 7,995 baht Promotion ?? in all the years I have had PC/Laptops all have been AMD Yes these days both AMD and Intel CPUs are made in China
  5. Pee 2 or 3 times in the night... It is fine I only start to worry if I don't pee, at least I know my Kidneys are working 10 years ago could only Pee a bit maybe 2 x in 24 hrs = Hospital = was Stage 5 CKD !! = do not want to go on Dialysis or the expense - change of diet = stage 2 past few years So happy to pee a lot
  6. Have a mole on my chin, got fed up of always nicking it every day as a youngster So at 24 grew a Goatee, and still have it at 74, do find shaving the rest is a pain in older age but the stubble is not noticeable so shave the rest maybe 1 x a week
  7. Not always, always used the same Dentist for around 18 years. then changed to the local Government Hospital Dentist a year ago as my upper back tooth split, my normal Dentist was a 3 day wait. The Government Hospital dentist I thought was just a boy, looked about 16, well he was so gentle....last week was the same guy still looks young again very gentle
  8. The HMRC employer enquiries page has a message: 'Due to industrial action between 23 December 2024 and 14 February 2025, you may wait longer Also a waning some may go on 8 week Strike Maybe a reason for even slower response ?
  9. Tooth broke off,finally had the root removed last week Village type Government Hospital cost 280 baht + standard Dr fees of 40 baht so total 320 baht.
  10. the large Gecko “jing-jok” make a lot of Beeping noise, often wakes me up.. there much bigger than the house Gecko and have orange dots all over Alway thought it was some sort of Bird.
  11. Are you sure it is a bird ? Maybe look up Frog sounds in Thailand, The very loud noise I heard in in garden often but could not find the Bird turned out to be a Frog, another time had something that sounded like a ships fog horn, also turned out to be a Frog
  12. Little problem with that...... depends on the size of the driver, a 50kg drivers seat will still look good at 160 k where as a 160kg driver the seat is badly worm at 80 k
  13. Love the statement "you should not use the information obtained from this measurement for self-diagnosis or self-prescription." So what is the point of using ? I use Accu-Chek meter and have done for many years, I NEED to know each morning my reading so I can have the amount of Insulin I need... this morning 114 so normal amount of insulin, last week had 2 different days were I was low 56 and 69 = adjusted my Insulin to NON if 90 or below take less Insulin so 100% do use my meter for self-diagnosis or self-prescription Accu-Chek test strips I buy for the same place 'The Good Dr Pharmacy' around 800 baht for 100 strips with postage, takes around 5 days to arrive [clear customs + delivery] use the same place for around 5 years. Cheapest I could find in BKK was on Rama 4 cost 1.250 baht, as for local Pharmacies very few stock them + normally is 25 strips for about 450 baht !! Would love the CGM but the cost it very high - the sensor must be changed every 14 days - I did speak to a Rep at Abbotts the ongoing cost is around 1,000 baht per month Yes fed up with 30 odd years of finger pricks As for the Hb1ac test, yes is done every 3 months = show I am good for years now 6.1 - 6.3... but will not show the odd days I dropped far to low and need to have less insulin.... had I relied only on the Hb1ac test I would have gone into a Diabetic Coma long ago
  14. Where I live it is flat But the earth must be round Look at flights BKK to London Heathrow 12.47 must be going up hill ? Flight time London Heathrow to BKK 11,25 so quicker as going down hill ?
  15. How long will you live is a good question As I get older 74 now, appear to be getting slower, can fall asleep anytime day or night more of a effort to do what used to be simple things, but still wake up every morning so will see My Mother, her brother and sister all died in their early 40's 3 cousins died in their 50's, my Father + grandfather made it to 80. Thai Friend in the Village. he and his wife early 60's his Father 95 + his wife 94 both diabetic but very well, there are 5 others live with their Son/Daughter in the Village in there 80's
