I ordered a workout supplement online but I suspect it might not be genuine. I've ordered from the supposed product brand many times before in my home country - this one the supplement tastes different and the consistency is strange. Even the label for the container seems a little off. I'd like to verify that it's real before I keep putting it into my body.

I was out with friends in Soi Cowboy last night. I had a few drinks and then suddenly felt disoriented and had cotton mouth. I think I might have been drugged. What do I do?

I'm looking for a reliable mosquito spray in Bangkok, specifically something that works well in urban areas. I've tried a few different products in the past, but I'm not sure what's most effective here. I recently bought a new spray at a 7-11, but I'm not sure if it's any good.

My son is deathly allergic to shellfish and I'm worried about his safety while we're in Thailand. My doctor seems a bit flaky and told me that you cannot get an EpiPen in Thailand. Just looking for a sanity check.

I've been struggling with shoulder problems for about 8 months now and I'm heading back to Bangkok near the end of the year. I've had MRI scans on both shoulders but the results are inconclusive. I'm considering PRP or stem cell treatment, or possibly surgery.

I've had chronic lower back pain for 8 years now which gets either slightly better or much worse at will. I've been through the NHS channels in the UK. 100 hours of physio and chiro (exhausting), lost 22 kg, strengthened in the gym, walked 25000 steps a day for a solid month and the flair up this time is one of the worst. 2 weeks, no improvement. I'm in Bangkok for 4 weeks and I'd like to get an MRI and have a consultation with a specialist.
