Diverticulitis gets complicated for some people. I am looking at options potentially for a few years out. hopfully I won’t need surgery.

I am 4 months out from my first attack with many minor flateups. Brutal disease but gets better I have heard. If I need surgery, I was thinking of doing it in Pattaya as I could get a few months off from work to have the surgery and recover.

I need to get surgery for diverticulitis. Around 6 inches of my colon removed. anyone ever do similar surgeries in pattaya?

This is a question that deserves its own thread.

Thanks. Looking for more urban locations. Something close to the action. seems there would be demand for a western style nursing home tied to a condo development.

Any care homes in north Pattaya area? Ultimately Looking for an end of life place with medical card if needed.

Is there much difference between Sunday and Monday traffic going back to Bangkok?

Proximity to the airport is a big deal for families. Spend first week in pattaya to acclimatize rather than BKK. families vacations are really the future of pattayas tourism product. So many amazing family hotels. the crystal clear waters of the island also get the tropical island out of the way rather than going samui or Phuket. the zoo and the Pygmy hippo is another thing for a day. also all the beaches along the coast to the south. Plethora of outdoor night markets are also a key feature. I am a huge booster of pattaya for family vacation. we wake up at 6 am end usually in bed by 10 pm. Even heat of the day works to kids advantage as we do homework in the hotel room. Daddy (sometimes mommy) might sneak out until 11 pm. 😉

I find hotel prices are just too expensive and in hua hin.. pattaya is half price for hotels. I travel with a family and need a nice place.

I never spent anytime in pattaya until a few years ago. I do think it is a well rounded family destination with cheap hotels.

Dusit Thani has released very good weekly rates. Around 23000 baht per week with breakfast during high season.

I love the hard rock but no deals yet. Best pool/location in town.

Any tips on which hotels gave good rates? I am 0/5 so far.

Wifey is demanding a nice 5 star for the month (or a week) any good deals out there?
