Hi Ed,
A friend of mine has lived in Hong Kong and/or Thailand for many years now. He does not get p care, but I know that the medical care that he has gotten there is on par with the most sophisticated in the world.
While many here don't agree with my somewhat undtraditional theories about holistic and alternative medicine, I get emails from my overseas friend, telling me the same sorts of things that I've said to my friends here about how to attain and maintain great health.
(It's shocking to me that I let myself to take a drug like Effexor for three whole years when I know how sensitive I am to chemicals. Was I thinking that this sensitivity had disappeared? Sheesh!)
Anyway, he is really pleased with the medical system over there. I should add, though, that he can probably afford the best they have to offer. He sent me information about this hospital in Thailand, www.bumrungrad.com, that he went to to investigate a problem that he was having and raved about it.
