TLDR : Answer Summary

Converting an ED Visa to a Medical Visa inside Thailand is possible but challenging. It typically requires a doctor's letter stating the medical necessity for the change, and there is a low likelihood of receiving an extension beyond 30 days. However, experiences can vary, with some individuals successfully completing the process.

It's very difficult to get an extension based on medical needs. Immigration does not like issueing these. Your doctor will need to write a letter specifically saying why you are unable to travel and you're unlikely to get more than 30 days.
