bkk and Sriphat did good tests though, really quick but NHS had to repeat them all for their duty of care etc

If I had known them what I know now I would have just done the initial screening here and gone home for the invasive tests and colonoscopies MRI etc

yes, I had insurance via my company, cancer treatment was supposed to be covered but it was so difficult and tricky to get them to even pay a little

If there were complications (I had some minor ones) it would have been more!

I was diagnosed with stage 3 bowel cancer at Bkk hospital last year, cost around 70,000 baht for tests (Cigna insurance refunded 6,000) the surgery was quoted at 6-800,000 baht for surgery, this did not include any complications and recommended 6 rounds of chemo approx 500,000 baht. Decided to go home (uk) for treatment. Surgery 2 months after I arrived as they repeated all tests, Cancer downgraded to stage 2, no chemo recommended, so far so good.
