Appeal for an idea!!!

I have landed BKK last June ,staying with medical treatment patient till now, Patient went back home and I left in BKK for some unclear documents and balance credits amount to clarify.

1 . Today I discovered that my visa is invalid since patient left out of country.

Even I have valid visa stamp, my visa is auto cancelled and pay for over stay fine. That's Okey.

2. Any idea of returning to BKK for further treatment with patient?

Would I get visa entry denied?

Or I pay the fine and went to to other country via flight?

I am afraid that I may not Grant for entry.

I am open to any advise.

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the author's situation regarding an invalid visa after the patient they were caring for returned home. Although they have a valid visa stamp, their visa has been auto-cancelled due to the patient's departure. The author seeks advice on whether they would be denied entry upon attempting to return to Thailand for further treatment with the patient, or if they can resolve the situation by paying the overstay fine and leaving the country.

When did the patient leave? That might determine your period of overstay. If more than 90 days, could be a big problem. If less, you might face scrutiny, but should be able to re-enter.

 Incorrect, bans only start after 90+days overstay and a 5 year ban requires a 1 year overstay. Stop scaremongering!

 after 90 days if you surrender yourself. If you're caught with 1 day overstay, you can be banned.

 If it's an extention of stay that auto cancels when the reason becomes invalid, if it's a visa the you'll be OK

 The first 90 days is a visa, after that it's an extention of stay, the stamp in your passport will tell you, extended stay
