  3. Amazing how dirty the floor gets, downstairs must mop every evening, kitchen every 2nd day.. do have the windows and doors open 24/7.. + have dogs Upstairs even if the dogs do not go up, the master bedroom is very dirty and full of hair in a week, again windows open 24/7... [7 windows in bedroom] Both spare bedrooms windows closed, run the mops over every couple of months not dirty..
  4. 2004 went to Immigration for Certificate of Residence what a performance and silly copy after copy of paperwork would then only send it + took 3 weeks Never been there again, since then always see my local 'Head Man' we go to the town hall and get the Certificate simple no waiting no money, I have been on the Amphur Computer since 2004, so every time I need a new Certificate they simply bring up my file change the date > print > take to Boss = signed and big red seal stamp... have in my hand within 30 mins Likewise last time went to Nonthaburi DLT was 2008 = all day job, now just drive out into the sticks to a DLT, easy simple eg: last renewed DL there were 5 people there in & out in less then 1 hour with new licence in hand.
  5. As a youngster to be clean shaven was at least twice a day shave Past 50 years have a Goatee = past few years just need to shave the non hair bits once a week
  6. Thanks Yes already sent them both + MD Pharmacy [used them b4] emails yesterday No reply yet... Never used Messenger maybe if no reply will get a Thai friend to phone them [my hearing is bad]
  7. Yet again Hospital yesterday BP to low 95/56 pulse rate 98 + loads of tests X-rays/ECG/EKG = heart is fine, lunges fine... some blood sent to a different Hospital for test [don't do these test at my Village Hospital] so must go back next Friday, Kidney function dropped alarmingly in 14 days = take NO BP meds for a week + wait for blood work back for different Hospital Dr suggests to change Insulin to 'glargine Insulin' my Hospital don't have change Metformin 850mg to '1000 mg XR' my Hospital don't have Must try to find a Pharmacy that stocks it myself + see price.. Used to go to Chula [Red Cross] but Covid + 2 hours each way on Public Transport + all day at a crowded Hospital made me change to the Local Government Hospital...
  8. If it on a Holiday Park then there licence is around 9 - 10 months a year.. with a Static Home there is different places = Private land or 'Residential park' [365 days] or 'holiday park' [9 - 10 months] Static Homes are built very different than Holiday homes
  9. likewise Philippines maybe as would be better off. No frozen UK Pensions... Old people care home back in UK ? Portugal lived there for years, just to expensive now... so that leaves Malta or Croatia, been many times years ago.. in 2 months been here 20 years and no willing/wish plan to move
  10. Not sure if normal.... Last Friday Dr cut out BP Med's for 14 days, so Thursday last week was the last of BP Med's Form then went up every day to Wednesday was 190/95 + good with Pulse rate going up every day. Thursday 167/85 with Pulse 80 this morning 155/84 with Pulse 81... makes me wonder why I have been subscribed 2 or 3 different High Blood Pressure pills every day for over 30 years ?
  11. 1. If I install the apps on a spare phone which will never leave my property does it have to have a sim in it? 2. If it does - does the sim only have to be in for the set up and installation of the app or does it always have to be in the phone (ie can the app be used over WIFI). My SCB bank app is on my spare phone To pay my AIS + Electric + water bills every month simple take the sim out of my everyday Smartphone put in the spare phone for 10 mins pay bills done not sure now a day you used to be able to get a 2nd 'Clone' sim card Another thing to remember is the Bank App will only install on Android 10 or above, so if you have a old smartphone with lower that Android 10 the app will not install
  12. Many thanks.. yes my arm band is large or maybe that should be my upper arms are not large... 1st thing in the morning sit in chair at table for 7 - 10 mins, then take my BP, as Dr advised years ago take 2 or 3 readings and take the average reading............. the only other time I will take a reading is if I feel light headed, blurred dizzy later in the day then will check BP 1st, if OK then check the BS reading No idea if I have seen a cardiologist at anytime , have had a Body MRI 2020. as well as a brain MRI
  13. From time to time Scan the Dr Prescription and put in 'my Health' folder on PC, + some of the detailed written reports MRI scans etc have 100's eg: for Blood pressure oldest I can find UK Dr Prescription - May 1999 Atenolol 50mg 1 x day Enalapril 20mg 2 x day
  14. Mine is the 2nd one, never a problem in all the years I have had one. mine is the bigger one 4,250 baht.... The Government Hospital has only this make 2 very large Wi Fi ones + loads of arm in sleeve type, + all the Dr rooms have the small upper arm strap ones...
  15. Did he give you a good reason why you should stop taking it....... he is she + a Older Diabetic Specialist Yes the reason is Prenolol reduces the heart rate, so to stop taking for 14 days and see what the readings are... with these new reading can maybe get different med's /dosage Yesterday 178/90 with pulse rate of 62---- This morning 188/88 with pulse rate of 64
  16. As said in my 1st post "last year Pulse average was 72" [has been around this for years] it is only now this year that the resting heart rate has dropped to low 50's
  17. Take a Pee bottle with you very cheap at a pharmacy, then leave under seat on leaving..... Maybe get airlines to think Pee Fee again ????
  18. Blood pressure I take at home every morning for past 10 + years, same as FBS for even more years. Yearly Blood test = NO drink of any kind / No food from 8 pm the evening before Friend took me by car the 6 km to Hospital..... seeing some pretty fit nurse ?? don't go to same hospital as you, most are 45 + My Blood Pressure readings were taken 6 times over 5 hours at the hospital My Omron Blood Pressure Monitor was a lot more expensive than that My hospital for years has accepted my own daily readings and monthly averages, I take a printout every visit
  19. In resent month been all over the place. range between 200/112 to 90/59 + always Pulse below 60. last year Pulse average was 72 ? Since 1991 taken 1 x mornings Prenolol 50mg, {Atenolol] cut down to 25 mg 6 months ago + Evenings 1x Losartan 50 mg + 2mg Dozozin [UK NHS website states: Older adults should not usually take dozosin to treat high blood pressure] ?? Yesterday was my Diabetic yearly Blood work day at Hospital, mostly all fine = A1c 5.9. CKD down to Stage 2, all other tests perfect Blood Pressure still a problem, every hour in the waiting room they re took my reading, see Dr then off to get loads of wires attached and a printout, this was done again after 30 mins. back to see Dr 163/64 with pulse rate of 53 !! Dr advised to stop taking Prenolol and appointment to go again in 14 days ? Why would a BP med I have taken for 32 years suddenly start making my Pulse rate drop ?
  20. Thee days there are always deals around... Building yourself is much cheaper if you DO NOT want everything new.. when I built my present PC, I only wanted a new Motherboard + CPU + Ram, that was over 11 years ago, since then I bought a New case, SSD drive, new PSU. most resent a new Graphics card..
  21. https://www.advice.co.th/product/computer-set-amd/set-amd/คอมประกอบ-advice-computer-set-amd-a123-ryzen-7-5700g-no-vga Looks OK . Good price just need Windows added......... No idea why they say No VGA as the 5700G has Vega 8 graphics Integrated on the CPU Never had anything other than AMD going back to the 70's even when I used a laptop it was AMD
  22. Not 100% sure the problem see = Windows 11 Home per installed believe is a Single language only = Thai only Thailand Windows 11 Home is Single language means you won't be able to change the display language and you could only add new keyboard or language to type but not change the display language of the Windows. You have to upgrade to Windows 11 Multilanguage or Windows 11 Pro.
  23. Who decides if your over weight ?? So say I am classed as obese by a Dr at a Hospital I went to for some years + he was always on about diet... My present Dr for some years say's I am well built = height + age and weight = about 8 kg over weight and nothing to worry about... So which is it ?? I am the same weight now near 73 as I was at 15......
  24. Depends on a number of things..... Me would not live anywhere but out in the sticks, as I have done all my life in many Countries back in 2003 found a nice Village and had a house built moved in in 2004...... back then turn off the main road = tarmac for 1 km, the next 6 km was a dirt track, these days it tarmac... All houses here are detached 2 are 6 bedrooms, 2 are 4 bedrooms and the others are 3 bedrooms... now at almost 73 not likely to ever sell or move Cheaper ? put it like this about 1 x week go to next Village to have a meal, prices have gone up, now pay 40 baht.. yesterday a farmers wife came down the Village with her cart - bought big bunch bananas 30 baht, most Veg at the local market is 3 - 10 baht [most are local farmers so straight from the fields]... eg: Big Cauliflower 15 baht, 3 big carrots 10 baht... For a few years now is very easy to do supermarket shopping on-line - comes next day = Tops/ Big C./Lotus's Within 6 km there are 2 Private Hospitals + 2 Government Hospitals Across the road one 3 bedroom house is rented out 6,500 baht per month, next Village friend rents 3 bed town house for 4,000 baht month.
