  1. You can try this foctor at dsme hodpital https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/doctors/pansak-sugkraroek
  2. It does contain codeine and you would need an FDA license to bring it in. Leave it behind. Btown Mixture, sold everywhere including 7-11, will work just as well.
  3. Thyroid: https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/doctors/jun-srimanunthiphol She can also advise on/treat bone health related to menopause. But I am not sure how much beyond that menopause wise. In Thailand this is mainly handled by Gyns and anti-aging clinics. . Note that in Thailand, most Gyn doctors are not knowledgable about bioidentical HRT. The anti-aging clnics do more in that respect.
  4. For what problem? they have sub specialties. E.g. thyroid, diabetes, pituatary
  5. I think that list assumes in Australia. They ate mot likely to accept a Thai doctor etc. Abroad, it probably has to be your Embasdy. Which foes ptovide this service. https://thailand.embassy.gov.au/bkok/Notarial_Services.html
  6. Moved to the Health Forum. Bickering/flaming posts removed. Aspirin, in any fise, is not a controlled drug in Thailand nor does it require a prescription. But quite true that it is not widely used and can be hard to find. If pharmacies in your area do not carry it, order it online from Thai pharmacy: www.medisafe.com Bangkokdrugstore.com LINE @Medlink
  7. Are you sure you actually need "certification"? Who is this for? I find Thais often say "certification" or "certified copy" when all they mean is for you to sign the page. If gor something in your home country, bedt to do at your Embassy as they may not,accrot local notary.
  8. I have nevrr purchssed bh Line Shopping. The one time I tried, the item was out of stock.
  9. Thanks. I had tried to find oug what Med Consult had but could not confirm with them. .
  10. It is true, just once a week.
  11. If you can get into Bangkok, very best (and also least expensive) choice would be the Institute of Dermatology. https://www.iod.go.th/en Otherwise this doctor at BPH is good, but it is an expensive hospital https://bangkokpattayahospital.com/doctor/anna-jaruwarn-m/
  12. It is quite possible to mistake something else for psoriasis. In addition there are different types of psoriasis including one (rare) that is serious and potentially fatal. In some cases skin cancers can superficially resemble psoriasis, and most Thai dermatoligists have limited evlxperrience with skin cancer. When no response to treatment to standard psoriasis treatmrnts, , biopsy makes sense. Cost will vary with type of hospital e.g government or private. Important to do this at a hospital where the pathologists have extensive experience with skin diseases including less common ones. @Fabio1980 where are you located?
  13. Thai based brokers like AA can help you get April Thailand. (or any other Thsi issued insurance) Fot April Internationsl you need a foreign based international broker. I use https://www.aoc-insurancebroker.com/ Whether getting Thai or foreign issued policy should go through a broker. It does not cost more, and they can assist afterwards with any claims issues.
  14. OK, I went to the actual source. https://pr.moph.go.th//assets/uploads/news/2568/d62f018add623ebcf36966b7ec9f883a.pdf 8,862 is a projected estimate for new infections for 2025. Probably based on a modeling exercise. The MOPH announcement says nothing about a "surge" or increase, and from the numbers none is projected. As mentioned in prior post, the actual figure for 2023 was 9,300. I don't know what 2024 was as that information is still be compiled/verified but it is clear that cases are not on the increase, though they are also not decreasing as fast as would be desired. So any social media reports of a "sharp increase"are fake news. This is exactly why there is a Health Forum specific rule against pisting news articles etc...they are so very often (indeed, most often in the case of social media) inaccurate. "4. Posting/pinning of news articles: The forum is for members to seek advice on health/beauty related matters. it is not the place for general dissemination of news, research findings etc. Members are not to post news articles/research findings unless in the context of a discussion specific to an ASEAN NOW member's health/beauty related problem." https://aseannow.com/topic/1341934-rules-specific-to-the-health-forum/ Thread closed.
  15. Social media is not an accurate source of epidemioligical information. And mass media is not much better. There are mass media reports quoting the MoPH as saying something about 8,862 new HIV infectiond in 2025 but it is totally unclear if this reflects partial year dsta (and if so, for how many months) or is a projection of what the total is likely to be by the end of the year --- or is actually data for 2024 being reported now in 2025. All very different things. This information takes time to vollect and verify, and typically reported annually around thr middle of the year for the prior year. The confirmed figure for full year 2023 was 9,300. If this 8 862 figure is actuslly for 2024 , then there has been no increase. And litlle or no increase if it is a ptojection for 2025. if it is actually for an unknown number of months in 2025, then it is a large increase. Note that the number of new infections and prevalence/number of infected people are quite different from number of new infections. Syphilis infections have been rising worldwide for some years now.
