chiang mai mike best explained my situation, the same for me. 3 weeks ago they did an angiogram and found 4 blockages, they did one stent and upon the second stent I got real bad pain and they stopped the angioplasty, I already had 6 stents and one was partially blocked, so I will consult with Dr. Weerachai and I guess I am a candidate for bypass, everyone I talked to thus far (they were all alive) states they feel like a new person. I am not looking forward to bypass but I have been doing a lot research on it and like everything else my fear comes from ignorance, and once I get educated and listen to others experience then I am less fearful.

thank you chiang mai mike, wish you well.

a lot of info, anyone ever have a bypass done by dr.

trying to fax from home, 053 number, anyone know the prefix??? 0011? before the usa number

soothsayers of gloom and doom only show where there mindset is, Thailand is anything you want to make of it. Everyday people ask me how you doing? I reply another day in paradise!!! I have a friend here special forces ranger or something like that about your age with 2 tours in Iraq he has been here 3 years writing a book. When you get here contact the VFW or contact us through the Chiang Mai VFW website and we will help you get situated. No problemooooooo............

if you were a former military person you would know the educational benefits available to him would pay for a lot of education, nothing personal, but are you former USA military?

As former marine and a member of our local Chiang Mai VFW I am inclined to be of support to a former member of the military establishment, in fact I have a few friends who are using their military educational benefits to work on their degrees at Payap University which in return will entitle you to more income per month to help support you. If you are a former combat veteran with a rated disability our VFW service officer will assist you in setting up your medical care through a local hospital where the hospital will bill the VA through the FOREIGN MEDICAL PROGRAM. There is a lot of ways to stay here so don't believe everything you read on here. Oooooo did I mention there is a lot of good universities here in Chaing Mai and Thailand. Feel free to ask away, and if necessary I will try and give you my email for personal questions.

wow i gotta tell ya, whoever started this thread should be given a raise or shot, it is amazing

i went to carryboy on hang dong road just after TESCO on the left side, and the second carryboy was to leave the first carryboy go to the first UTURN and after you make the UTURN you will see the second carryboy on the left side. prices were from 22-35,000thb.

hey thanks just got back from 2 different dealers both on hang dong road, too expensive for me

the guy with the used one if you can pics to my email <removed> and you phone number i would like to take a look

anyone can give me a street address and map where the carryboy dealer/vendor is, i live between bus station and train station

no three incisions, still a lot of pain

i had the same 15 days ago, right knee about 89,000thb. the surgeion was DR. PRASIT who teaches at the CM MED UNIV. , performs the surgery at CM RAM, crutches for six weeks, 15 days later still pretty sore, go back to have the stitches taken out on tuesday.

i think your mindset is gloom and doom, i thing everything will stay the same.

went to the car show big c, the only non wait truck i could buy was nissan navarra, maybe in one week and in my wife's name 1st time buy. sales persons were sitting at the tables ignoring the customers, when we finally could get a salesman he was all about high pressure how much down, accessories, add ons etc..... he did not know anything about yingluck first time buy. he got me to 880,000thb for a navarra 4 door all tricked out. and he will let me know in one week if the deal will go or not.

next day went to mazda bt50 same truck delivery time december 2012, the salesman was absolutely no high pressure jack up the price, he gave me a sheet with the prices and financing, he knew everything all about yingluck first time buy and he told us where to go to get this paper sort of like when you get married in thailand. but the way it is explained is that my thai wife was bequeathed a first time right to buy a vehicle.

not having too much confidence in all this i kept asking, yes, no maybe? and everyone at mazda smiled at the dumb farang patiently and said ok 100%. we go to the city bldg. tomorrow to get her written paper for first time buy entitlement. never got into any refund stuff but that will be explained when we go to the city bldg. to get the paper tomorrow, as i find out this stuff i will pass it on.

on and mazda non high pressure price was 130,000thb less for pretty much the same truck.

appreciate the information thank you

lost my keys including gates, doors, desks, etc. anyone know of a good locksmith that comes to the house????

if you find one please let me know, thanks
