She has an ongoing problem with her blood and i cant explain to her.
Basically she has low white blood cells and low platelets, they are also testing for hepatitis

Hi Nigel,

Take care

เม็ดเลือดขาว ทำหน้าที่เกี่ยวกับภูมิคุ้มกันของร่างกาย
เกล็ดเลือดทำหน้าที่ช่วยสมานแผลให้เลือดหยุดเวลามีบาดแผล
และจะตรวจไวรัสตับอักเสบด้วย

cheers for that Mue + Packpao,
Par hasnt read it yet she has gone to bed but iam sure it will help stop worrying in the morning.

"N" - there is also an Aussie site (NSW health Dept) I think it is that has lots of medical terms , proceedures etc translated into thai - pretty good - we (the wife and I ) have used it before...

I am sure one of the link speacilists can help out here

if my crude link ins't working

Before some members get on and give us a hard time for getting transaltions etc etc (you guys know who you are - EURO lovers) I still strongly believe that when it comes to medical things and legal things - you should have the acess to them in your FIRST language if at all possible

Useful link Skippy.
This thread should be made a Sticky IMHO.

Packpao

totally agree !!!
Par now knows the explaination of everything from Anthrax to Genital Warts, hopefully she will never need to be use them though !!!!!

Excellent, very very useful site

Thanks for that link Skippy, very useful resource

More translation help please, Packpao, anybody, help, please !!!
I need the below in thai for Par. Obviously word for word is a bit too much to ask but just enough to help Par understand her problem and possible cause. Thanks in advance.
