I'm currently in Bangkok,and suffering now considerable discomfort from an alarmingly angry vein in my leg by the knee. Its been getting more painful all week,and looks like a terrifying zigzag.Its time to act.
I emailed Bumrungrad,as I have used the hospital before,but have yet to recieve a consultation appointment.
A couple of questions......if I have the surgery here,would I be fit to fly by the end of the month? (ie,in a weeks time). I wouldn't want to bleed out at 35,000 feet. And,if I don't get sorted this week,would flying back be a risk with the ailment/diseased vein still causing grief?
Any info on varicose vein treatment and recovery much appreciated.
I googled "varicose veins" and clicked on the images....some monstrous examples there.....mine isn't extreme,but painful all the same,and causing anxiety. I dont know if its an emergency situation,but better to be safe than sorry.
Also,if not Bumrungrad,anyone have experience of treating vvs in another Bangkok hospital?
Grazie.
