Hmm.....1. April

I wonder if the Thais in our home countries think the same way🤔 If so, they will have a full-time job just reporting their own Nationals where I come from. Felt

Anyone with experience from Rachvipa MRI รัชวิภา เอ็ม อาร์ ไอ เซ็นเตอร์ – ศูนย์ตรวจเอ็มอาร์ไอมาตรฐานสากล (rachvipamri.com) Thanks Felt

what goes around comes around i.e. with a law in any aspect made for misuse due to cultural inherited corruption on any level in the population. Felt

Sent you a PM

Ok thanks, then I do as you recommend. Btw, do you know if mri.thailand have CT scans as a service? Felt

Will a CT/ and or CTV for sure show a tumor? I can do this here with or without insurance and it will not ruin me. However, I also have the option to get it done in home country where any sign of tumor / cancer will be treated quickly and no question about price, our taxes cover that. I have always been skeptic about health and especially "care" when the system is business oriented so I can see for me a long row with test and a nurse standing behind the doctor listing up prices for tests but no secure result for the correct treatment whatever they find. Thanks Felt

No stethoscope listening. 😕 Felt

Thank you for the recommended Iron supplement. (Is this on the gentle or harsh side of constipation) Btw, and as mentioned they did a chest x-ray, but no heart, lungs or oxygenation 😕check as far as I know test procedures. Felt

No and I did not even know what it was until I just now google it. Felt

Thank you for replying. They tested hTSH T3 free T4. (Negative) / Troponin I (Negative) and then the thing which of all the test I think the doctor put most weight on the FDP D-Dimer (Sysmex) 2.540 ug/ml (H) / Glucose (Random) 88L mg/dl / Total Protein, Albumin, Globulin (L) / Sodium L, Anion gap (L) / Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide 340 pg/ml / Red Bloodcells 3.83 (L), Hemoglobin 12.0 (L), Hematocrit 35.0 (L). Remark H = above reference, L= Below reference range. They did a chest x-ray and this electro thing with a a lot of cables to chest /legs and got no negative comments about that so probably normal. I have been quoted 25K for a CT whole abdomen with contrast and 20K for CTV extremities is that more or less the price in a private hospital? Btw, my blood pressure was in hospital yesterday 98/64 and have recently been lower than expected and admittedly I've been a bit low on energy lately. Lastly Iron, can I get good Iron supplement over the counter in Thailand or is Iherb best option? Thanks, Felt

In the last 2-3 weeks both my ankles have swollen up and as of today I can barely fit my feet into a pair of trainers. I have taken various blood tests and an ultrasound of both legs (negative) Now the hospital will do a CT scan with contrast of the abdomen + CTV extremities as the doctor believes the swollen legs are due to what he think is a problem in the abdominal region which may be linked to cancer. (For the record, I rarely if ever have a stomachache) I have never had swollen ankles before in my life and with an active lifestyle of road cycling, jogging and swimming as well as a smoke/alcohol free existence, I have some issues with sharing the doctor's view. Anyway, If there is anyone on the forum who has experienced something similar, I hope they will share their experience. Thanks Felt

Thanks for the replies. Any cost indication? I already have x-ray. Felt

Does anyone know if there are hospitals / doctors in Bangkok and possibly can recommend a hospital that as far as possible use non-surgical treatment where the doctor will try to set the bones without surgery and use plastering / spica-cast for a broken thumb? Thanks Felt

Thank you for replying. Did your better half add you to the property? Inform Accommodation>Add- Yes Did they export the PDF, and print it? - Do you mean print it out for me to keep in passport? If so- Yes If they did this in the last seven days you can search for the record - Yes and just searched now and I'm approved on the record. Felt
