Can I get my heart medication shipped to me in Pattaya, Thailand, or should I buy it locally?

don't drink Chiang. Try beer Lao dum.

Strange. My Mrs recently attempted to send a PROHIBITED item from our local post office. I ‘advised’ her it was listed as such on Thai Post Office website. Unconvinced (she thinks I know nothing) she took it herself to the Post Office. They said they couldn’t accept it. However, no police involvement. A friend has an outstanding UK arrest warrant. I knew that it was safe to fly into UK because Border Force have no access to (and even less interest in) UK Police National Computer. One of the ‘experts’ on here insisted that they have all sorts of apps and check for warrants. My friend has since flown in/out of Manchester Ringway Airport three times since and remains at liberty!

I was abroad for six years. My GP’s surgery wrote to my unoccupied UK house with several appointments to attend my NHS hospital during that time plus annual flu, Covid jabs and pneumococcal vaccination invitations. Of course, I was unaware and each appointment was rebooked and wasted multiple times. Eventually, they gave up and threatened to remove me from their panel. I only knew this when I returned. I explained I had been ‘out of the country’ but now returned upon a permanent basis. All was restored and my preventative care brought up-to-date. In my experience my practice doesn’t want to know. They prefer email to personal contact. That was why I suggested Steve tells them he’s ‘abroad until further notice’. Leaves things undated and open-ended pending his return ‘upon a permanent basis’.

That’s great Steve. I tell my GP’s practice that I’m ‘abroad until further notice’. That ensures they won’t remove me from their panel as it’s my intention to return at some future date. I don’t need regular medication myself. However, I’m sure if you mentioned something similar they would be agreeable to continuing to issue prescriptions ‘pending your return to UK’. As regards postal delivery by Royal Thai Mail in Thailand, it’s the same as UK (door to door). You don’t need to find out when items arrive and collect them in person from the post office as you do in certain other countries.

I would also look at taking a parasite removal medication

This product has great reviews and many people swear by it

Google is your best friend for research ... Ivermectin is great but look for this on Google
