  1. I also have BUPA insurance in Thailand and am not very happy with them. I informed them at the onset on my application that I had a few different minor illnesses that I was treated for over the last few years (nothing serious), and the first time I got sick and needed some tests, they checked my medical records and due to the doctors notes & diagnosis', BUPA came back and slapped several permanent exclusions on my policy. One of them, I had written on the application that I had occasional stomach aches and was treated by a doctor and hospitalized one time overnight, but the doctor wrote the diagnosis was gastritis. I had a endoscopy done this year and there was no ulcer, no H Pylori, no cancer, etc., but because the doctor wrote very minor inflammation on the report, I now have an exclusion forever for an ulcer or gastritis.

    Anybody else out there having problems with BUPA Thailand?

  2. I just had a colonoscopy done at Bumrungrad 2 days ago. I have had lower left abdominal pain ever since. When I called the hospital to inquire about it, I was told that many people experience a certain amount of discomfort or pain immediately following colonoscopy procedures, but that it should subside after 2-3 days. The pain comes and goes, but I'm starting to become concerned that the degree of pain when its present has not lessened. Has anybody else experienced this after a colonoscopy -- especially at Bumrungrad?

    I have had four with about 15 polyps removed, all done in the UK as I don't trust them here. I have had some discomfort, if it does not go away with in time they say then go back. VC is nowhere near as good according to my consultant, but I guess it's a good option if you have no family history, my mum and sister had it.

    is it you don't trust Bumrungrad specifically or all hospitals in Thailand?
