Frank Peeters well all the numbers are doing good now but it is with the medications. cholestrol doing good blood pressure always
******
but i asked doctor can i stop the blood pressure medicine now she said oh no thats why you are getting good reading because you take your medicine everyday. same with my diabetes it is good now but i take mounjaro which is expensive i pay 164.00 a month with my insurance covering the other 1200.00 but in thailand i dont know how much mounjaro will be or if it is even availible. and those conditions will still count as pre existing conditions im worried anything happens heart attack or stroke then whoever insures me will try too not pay claiming oh that was from pre exisiting condition

Frank Peeters yes im already stressing that out as i will be retiring too thailand in 3 years 11 months. will be 65 have plenty of money but i want too protect it. im married too a thai lady she will buy us brand new home with her money she has saved and said i can live there in udon thani. but i have many pre existing conditions and im starting too wonder if this is going too work. high blood pressure high cholestrol thyroid type 2 diabetes. and i will probably have too keep my usa medicare. but it looks impossible too find affordable coverage care in thailand. i have had some reasonable quotes from cigna for about 600.00 a month which would still be manageable. but i dont know if they are reputable and pay their claims
