    For those of us that need more serious medical attention, this is the route to go I think. Many countries and agents and hospitals can be researched.

    Here the doctors/nurses won’t understand you and it will be very expensive.

    Last year May I had an acute pain in my stomach region. (I had had a protruding navel for some time). 2 buses & 1 hour later I arrived at the hospital. Sonars & blood tests & drip. I was told it was gallstones and I needed an urgent operation. I did not believe and did some searching.

    I went to Malaysia, Penang, Adventist hospital. Big success. English, Clean, well-organized and friendly. Flights, hospital, taxis, & 2 weeks in hotel was approx. RMB12,000.

    Been on my mind but most of us don’t go searching until we absolutely need to and that is often too late.

    Hope you are feeling much better and have recovered from the ordeal.

    Hopefully a new Gavvie! 😉
