I only take medication for prostate problems. Dutasterine (1 tablet after breakfast) and Tamsulosin (1 tablet before going to bed). I don't drink alcohol. Both drugs were prescribed to me by a urologist. The pharmacy I always order from informed me that they now have ONE tablet with both ingredients. A considerable cost saving. But is it wise to switch to ONE pill, and at what time of day would that be best?
Tested positive, what about a medical certificate?
Last Friday I tested positive for corona (I was vaccinated 3 x for corona). In exactly 3 weeks on Friday, April 1, I have a PCR test, because I will fly to Bangkok on Saturday. That test will probably also be positive.
Can you please tell me what documents I need to marry my Thai girlfriend in Thailand? Because I've already read everything and can't see the trees for the forest anymore.

Then I asked them the question, but the embassy did not answer.

Thailand Visa question No. 068/22: Visa Exeption – Renew (mistakenly not posted before)
I am in Thailand for a month. Would actually like to stay a few weeks longer. The period of one month is indicated on the Thailand Pass. The insurance for mentioning 50.000 euros has also been taken out for that period. Would I be able to get a visa at Immigration for the extended period now? And also have to take out extended insurance?

A question about quarantine. If you test positive on your return journey, do you have to go to a special hotel? How does that work and how long do you have to quarantine?
I am in the process of applying for a Thailand Pass for myself and my Thai wife. At first my wife got the comment that the English statement was apparently not good, after which I took out covid-19 insurance in Thailand and uploaded the certificate. My wife got to a few hours
