I do know about Bumrungrad. However, Pattaya is a long way from Bangkok. What’s available in Pattaya?

Interesting about Goldenseal being 1-2% Berberine. I knew a modern “medicine man” in the woods of Indiana, who was the healthiest living man I have ever met. He said Goldenseal caplets did nearly nothing for him, so he & his wife started buying it in root form, and which would store for up to several years in the pantry, in a simple masonry jar. They would make a tea from shavings of the root, just like a sassafras tea (root beer). That way it is 100x stronger than the nearly useless store-bought caplet, and they would use it whenever traveling or going into someone’s house during flu season, to stay 100% healthy.

Simon;

In alternative cancer care business, and about to open a new clinic in Cancun, Mexico. BUT, for your information, you can avoid any more bouts with travel illness, due to food or water based on bugs, bacteria, etc. by taking a pure form of the natural herb Berberine. Contact ActRx and they can get yo berberine alkloid, at 400-500 mg. You take one of these daily on the road and NO bug gets through.

Do not confuse Goldenseal or such as they contain 1-2% berberine.

Anyway, use it when you travel and Bye-Bye travel related attacks like you had. (Best version comes from China, that is why ActRx or the like.)

Best
Noel

Simon, I have received great reviews by corporate expats about health care in Thailand; details about Bumrungrad and Samitivej Hospitals.

What hospital did you go to?

What do you think about Pattaya as a retirement destination?

All the best Simon. Hope you get back into shape in a hurry. Completely agree that you are in one of the best places on this ball of dirt to be going through any sickness.
