I use to provide a source letter as well from both Social Security and pension . This year they said dont need that all they want is a bank statement showing at least 40,000 baht coming in the country every month for the past 12 months . Then a letter from the bank stating these funds are international transfers . This letter must be less than 7 days old . Copy of all pages of the bank book and up date it the morning your going in . Also when you get your statement mark lines showing the deposits. I just did mine last month at the airport .  Advise , get all your papers and copies ready , go the day before have them check them . Show up early next morning and drop your papers in the basket you ll save yourself a lot of time .  

Also it was Chiangmai

I just did my extension a couple days ago and was asked specific if I had plans to travel outside the country while my extension was under consideration . I had no plans so I dont have an answer. But that might give you an idea doing so may require you letting them know ..

OK will give current info:  was only able to sleep on stoma side using Convatec bags of any kind as once turned to left side seal would leak within few hours.  Lived some years with that issue but at last tried Coloplast 5585 one piece bags.  They have allowed sleeping normally on back or both sides without leakage for 2 days usage.  Also very easy to remove without tearing skin.  Not cheap at about 3k for 20 bags but well worth it to be able to sleep normally.  Buy from Lazada Medical Smile and get very fast delivery.

The other thing needs is night drainage bags and they can vary in quality but not expensive and use one bag for a week.  Use bottom drain of this.

Thanks !  Im still about a month or two out from surgery . 

I m glad I found this post . Im in chemo now with stage 3 bladder cancer , have 3 more rounds to go then surgery to have a radical cystectomy . So I will be bag hunting soon ..

I think any government hospital can pull up your records . Might ask the hospital

Does anyone know of a cancer support group in Chiangmai 

I use the online appointment last week . I printed out the slip and had it attached to my paperwork. I showed up went to a special window to the right they took my documents , told me have a seat . Within about 30 minutes we were called up stamped and out the door. Most times in the past its been a three hour ordeal . The big thing is make sure everything is correct and you ve signed everything in blue ink ....  Fastest I ve ever got done . I can remember the times I would go there at midnight put a chair in line go sleep in the car ....

Dr Vachiraporn at RAM is US educated and trained and comes highly recommended by most foreigners who have been treated by her, including me. I second this she treated me last year . She also has a clinic on canal road south of Sutep road on the left going south she is there Im thinking Mon Wed and Fridays 5 to 8 pm 

Make an appointment online . I did that last week . Showed up processed in about an hour , did not have to sit through the que . Normally takes me three hours . Just make sure all your documents are correct and signed . They ll be checked twice before you get to the stamping agent . The only thing they got me on was I used black ink they want blue but let me slide this time .

Rudy is still there . I enjoy eating there the foods always good and the staff as well. Sunday night buffet is the best .

I had the same issue this year . The first one I mailed off . Just last week I got another . So I signed it copied it both sides and emailed it to Manilla telling them the issue and saying I was mailing this one as well .  We as a group maybe need to contact someone that will listen .....

This was the response I got .
