Prostate surgery user reviews .... turp? rezum? other ?
I am 76 years old, and I share the same preference. However, if my doctor were to recommend surgical removal, I would opt for the least invasive method available, which, to the best of my knowledge, is the da Vinci robotic-assisted procedure. I’d like to be well-prepared and informed about the best surgical options and specialists, should that path become necessary. That said, I have been leaning toward complete removal of the prostate gland rather than undergoing a gland-reducing procedure like TURP, Rezum, or Urolift. But I wasn’t aware that the da Vinci method is typically reserved for cancerous glands and cannot be used as a precautionary measure, similar to preventive surgeries (mastectomy) some women undergo to reduce the risk of breast cancer. In any case, if my condition becomes critical, I will follow Sheryl’s advice and seek a second opinion, likely from a reputable urologist (yet to be determined) at one of the major hospitals in Bangkok. -

Homeowner Finds Python in Toilet Bowl, Escapes Before Capture
Picture from responders A homeowner in a two-story townhouse in Soi Pracha Samakki, Phra Samut Chedi District, Samut Prakan, was left shaken after discovering a large python emerging from her toilet. Despite efforts by local rescue officers to capture the snake, it slipped back into the plumbing and remains at large. Officials from the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation in Na Khlong Bang Pla Kot were called to house in a local housing estate after a report of a python seen breathing at the surface of a toilet bowl. The call came from Mrs. Pannee 59, who was visibly distressed as she recounted the shocking encounter. Upon inspection, officers confirmed the presence of a large python, estimated to be 2-3 metres long, that occasionally surfaced for air while flicking its tongue. When they attempted to lift the makeshift grate placed by the homeowners over the toilet to prevent the snake from escaping, the python submerged itself back into the water and disappeared down the drain. To locate the snake, the team enlisted the help of local workers to dismantle the toilet, a task that took over an hour. Despite their efforts to search the tank and pipes, the python could not be found. It is suspected that the snake retreated further into the plumbing system, possibly into the septic tank. Mrs. Pannee shared her harrowing experience, explaining that she and her family have lived in the house for over five years without encountering such an incident. She first suspected something was wrong the evening before when water in the toilet drained unusually slowly, prompting her to use a plunger to clear it. The shocking discovery occurred the following morning as she cleaned the bathroom. While rinsing a floor mop in the sink, she heard bubbling noises from the toilet. When she leaned over to inspect, she was horrified to see the python’s head emerge from the bowl. “It flicked its tongue at me, and I ran out of the bathroom in terror,” she said. Grateful that the snake had not appeared during her earlier use of the toilet, she immediately contacted her neighbourhood security team, who then called the local rescue team. Although the python remains at large, authorities have advised the family to remain vigilant and contact officials immediately if the snake resurfaces. Officials aim to safely capture the python and release it back into the wild. -- 2024-12-06 -

Thailand Soars with Airbus to Become Top Regional Aviation Hub
I'm all for safety in the aviation sector... Thailand has a dodgy history with how some airlines are run and maintenance practices fall short of what they should be.
