Moral of the story, when you are in the Philippines always make sure you are aware of where the closest good private hospital is to where you are staying. That way in an emergency you can just go directly to a good hospital or medical centre and not the local hospital that caters to the poor.
It's sad but this is the standard of healthcare that that the average Filipino gets.
Its time to stop drinking and eating garbage...its fun but it will eventually catch up with you.
I agree ☝️ 💯 😊for the last 7 years I’ve been going to the Philippines 🇵🇭 from NYC🇺🇸just got back 2 weeks ago…every time I’m there it’s the same routine…watch what I eat and drink ! I remember Tom said one time in his video that his stomach is made of steel…well it’s catching up…Stay safe my friend.
@@isreeramotar3868 Agree for the last 20 years I visited Manila and Cebu it was a study diet of pork and beer. Combine that with a day at the beach and one will really feel it.
I am very happy you had her with you. You should reach over and give her a big kiss and hug because it's obvious she cares for you and she had your best interests at heart when you couldn't defend yourself. You have a great lady
Please be careful Tommy
Eat some veggies 🥦 🥕 at times
And take vitamins
Lay is so caring and. Lucky you have her ❤
You're very lucky to have found a wonderful woman Tom. Lay is your guardian angel 😇
wait until she shows her real face.. haha seen it a mio times in phil.. its all ending bad..
@@danielboomersdon't generalize 🙄
@@danielboomers Have you got a crystal ball with you in your mums spare room.
I am glad you feel better Tom, that was so scary, that hospital is awful, thank God you beautiful girlfriend really is a good person who cares and helped you.
It sounds like they were incompetent Tom. They were trying to keep you there as long as possible to get more money.
I thought something was going on with you, do take care. And definitely choose a clinic ahead of time to go to if at all possible!
NOW... YOU EXPERIENCED THE MEDICAL ISSUES IN MY COUNTRY! BAD ..!!!VERY...VERY...BAD!
That hospital room looks like a welders shop with the roller shutter door and the gas bottle 🤣🤣🤣
Because of our age and medical history, we decided not to retire in the philippines. Although the philippines is one of the countries that sends nurses and other medically skilled workers around the globe and the philippines is left of underpaid nurses...sad but it's the truth.
They are also understaffed.
Try to go to bigger hospital and well known hospital, you may have to pay more just to be sure.
Don't take it for granted make an appointment with a cardiovascular doctor so you can have the necessary tests.
That's not true. I have an excellent doctor at Manila Doctors Hospital. My last doctor was also excellent. I have been here a few years now and I have gotten better care than I did in the US and it is a much better price. The bottom line: It cheaper than the USA and the care is BETTER. You get what you pay for- NEVER go to public hospitals. They are garbage.
Omg…what an awful experience! Hospitals in the 🇵🇭 are scary. But I’ve heard good things about St. Luke’s it’s supposed to be the best hospital. Hope all is well with you Tom 🙏
my grandmother died in one of those family clinics they gave her sedatives when she was having aneurism then when we transferred her hours later to a bigger hospital in capitol medical hospital in quezon city it was already too late. the number 1, absolutely you can't do is put someone having aneurism attack is put them to sleep! she died at age 64 she wasn't that old i was just a kid she can still run and can even carry 25 kilos of rice which is what we always buy every month. i also got operated on one of those clinics and it healed bad because of bad stitching and got infected and my body have a high resistance from infections the only time in my life i got infected and i must've had more than 6 surgeries in my life and all of them are really invasive except that minor surgery from that clinic i actually had my 4th surgery last month which was a result of a motorcycle accident 2 years ago. never got infected i probably need atleast 3 to 4 months before i can walk both my legs suffered multiple fractures. it's hell on earth.
OMG, please be very careful and don’t risk your health going to mediocre hospital! Thank God you’re well now and have Lay watching out for you as well! 🙏
Living in Australia, having access to the best medical treatment you could ask for, that is one thing I worry about when it comes to travelling to or living in the Philippines. The plan was I live there with my Girl who is from Southern Leyte but I would rather be very close to a hospital that is properly equipped and has educated doctors. Man, what a worry.
Yes mate . If you get sick and it’s serious you need to be in Australia with your own doctor and Australian public healthcare services and Medicare system . Australian hospitals do have everything you need if you need a public hospital. The Philippines will find your money first before they find your treatment.
The Philippines is a wonderful place as long as you remain healthy but a financial disaster when you become ill. Try a course of iron tablets and watch your salt levels.
One of the pluses of living in BGC is ST. Luke's Medical Center with The Asian Hospital another 30 minutes away.. I believe they are the 2 best hospitals in the PH. I guessing you had heat stoke and heartburn from all the hot sauce. Combine this with hottest months of summer and it would get to anyone with White skin.
Take care and thanks for letting foreigners understand the medical system in the Philippines (or any foreign country for that matter)
Wow what a night. Thank you for sharing this with us. Get well soon and can’t wait for the next part of the story. You and Lay get some rest now.
We get good healthcare in Thailand in a rural area; I think one of the commentors also said this. Its not free though as we pay health insurance to the local government every year and it only covers so much (think of it as basic/emergency cover) and anything medically expensive you have to pay, which is fair. Like anywhere the health system needs to be funded properly and in Thailand there is government support, but its limited and you need to either have additional insurance or cover the costs yourself.
Lay, you should have brought Tom to St. Luke's Medical Center (SLMC) in Quezon City instead of going to Makati Medical Center which is farther from Quezon
City. The SLMC is also one of the topnotch hospitals in the Philippines. You have also the Philippine Heart Center in East Avenue, Quezon City. Another most sought-after hospital is the Cardinal Santos Medical Center in Greenhills, San Juan City.
No such thing as a sought after hospital in the Philippines nor even a good hospital
Thank you for sharing your experience 😊😊😊
@@kevinp7620 pffffttttt!!!!!!
Wow! I'm glad your still here mate. A heart issue is not something to take lightly. 'Hope you are doing better now. Take it easy.
Hi Tom.thats my biggest worry living in Philippines the hospitals their and cost ...luckily you got Lai to help and nurture you through this ...
Hope you get a full recovery soon and congrats on having lai as your I hope long term gf she is one to keep...
Good to see you guys, I was wondering where you were.
Sorry for your bad experience. Hope you get and stay better. Good luck n safe travels guys. 🙏🏽
This is exactly why I laugh whenever I hear people say, “It’s more fun in the Philippines”
Lol... Hang on a minute, is this the same Tom "I never get sick" Hogan lol, get well soon matey lol
He said he has a stomach of steel 😊😅
Get well soon
Tom today after watching Mjs Videos about her Papa & now Toms Video about Hospital Bills, Medicine and now here Hospital Stay. Tom & Lay for more healthy eating & time for some Paradies & Filipino Fruits too ❤
yeah. they are both e-beggars, that is precisely why he did not buy the camera but to give hint to he viewers. He and his previous la-la-la are notorious e-beggars
@@leonorhjortshoej8328Tom also has a massive 10 incher. Can you beat that, little man?
🇬🇧 10 British Inches 🇮🇪
@@leonorhjortshoej8328please don’t judge them as it’s not bad to ask help financially if a shocking and unexpected disease hits someone especially if can’t afford all the hospital bills . Good for you if you have savings or insurances to settle all your bills but what if not?
If you were in their shoes and you suddenly been afflicted with a chronic disease or worst Big C , are you not going to ask help. .
I think e beggars is not right to tell as others also do the go fund me ..
You speak ill of them as you don’t understand their circumstances yer until it happens to you.
Geez Tom you might have to give the log a rest😅
@@leonorhjortshoej8328 I can't say for sure about Tom being e-beggars. MJ on the other hand, every content she downloaded is in your face e-begging, because she wants to live an extravagant life or wants to keep up with the Kardashians. It is so pathetic. Sadly a lot of her fools dedicated subscribers, easily fall for her act.
I hope you are recovering and feeling better. My wife and I were concerned as you discussed your situation with that mini-hospital. They really need to be able to do better than that. I did like your microphone holder :).
sorry to hear about this. hope you're feeling better 🙏
Thanks Eric
Oh man, hope you feel better Tom. Stay away from too much street food my friend. You have a good girl with you so maybe she can prepare some meals in between. Good luck !
Hope your on the mend soon young Tom. I need you to cheer me up as I have sever heart problems. Best wishes to you.
Stay away from meds it's the start of your downfall.
Thank you for this very informative useful live saving blog. Thank God you both decided to checkout from tat so called fmly hospital/clinic. Thank God for His divine intervention. Meanwhile God bless. and hope all will be well for you both
Glad ur okay!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🖤🩷
You seem fairly young and active! I would be willing to bet your experiencing bad case of indigestion and heartburn that can simulate heart attack symptoms. Also if you have any anxiety issues that can sometimes cause symptoms. I know this because I've gone through this for years. I went to hospital several times when i was younger with chest pains in left side and sometimes slight numbness in arm. Have had many tests done and I have always had bouts of anxiety but my diet was poor so i was dealing with acid reflux issues and indigestion often and those can all tie together. I'm not a doctor but any means so I would recommend being safe and getting further checked out. I'm just giving you my experience that can cause those same symptoms so maybe can help you out a little too ease mind a little and not think of the worst case scenario. Either way I hope you get better and try to eat more better foods and less spicy foods also. 😊
100/60. Is still fucking fine
The healthcare in the PH is third world. beside St Luke's, Makati Medical are okay when you have the money for it.
I was in Cabanatuan, getting a routine physical. In the "ER" room getting a EKG.. they rush in some guy who was in a motorcycle accident and throw him on the bed next to me. A doctor uses a hand pump over his face to induce oxogen and keep his heart moving (atleast chest up and down movement). The doctor looks at the guys family or friends and says who will pay the bill, is there any insurance? no response, so the doctor stops the hand pump and that was it.. guy was gone. If you get outside of Manila or Cebu, most of the clinics and small hospitals are just like that. My dad passed away in one of those small hospitals in malolos 2 years ago. I am sure you miss the great health care here in Thailand now.. One of my good friends is the senior Anesthesiologist at St. Lukes Makati there in the Philippines.
That's a sad story. It's a shame that medical personnel care more about the peso than saving a life.
@@KC-in9px That is technically illegal. Not suprised though
This did not happen people. Stop believing sad people like this who post nonsense. If there was any chance for survival doctor would have continued. Just more Philippines hate speech.
It’s more fun in the Philippines.
next time , bring him to st. lukes,you will have a good check up
Omggg what kind of clinic they're running there!!! Sounds like a horror movie story. hope you get better soon.
St Lukes is where you need to go in Manila ! -- Best in the entire country - right there.
bring him to st.lukes for further check ups now , Lay, do it pls.
What a nightmare. You where lucky to Have Lay with you❤❤
I like Lay and her demeanor. She’s soft spoken. It’s good you went to a better hospital. Time to rethink of your diet. I’m not being intrusive Tom , just an advice from a subscriber. Been watching you for years and my first time to comment. Hope your relationship works out. Love watching you both. Take care!
@emmacanlapan5914 TOMMY IF YOU HAVE A BLOCKAGE IN YOUR MAiN ARTERY GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY AND GET IT FiXXXED IMMEDIATELY. I LOVE YOU MY BROTHER 💎🙌🏻💪💯 THEN YOU CAN BE LiKE OLD & WiSER LiKE BUDWiESER 👍
I had the same symptoms, turned out I had a heart attack. Same exact symptoms. Those nurses saved your life and you don't even realize it. Sure the equip was old but they did what was needed for 1st treatment and stabilized you. You probably need a heart Stent. You need an echogram now to confirm the ekg results.
yesssss eat healthy u both👌👌👌no to unhealthy food u can eat inside the condo but healthy
Do not go to ER, that wld cost u hefty amount of money, 20 k or so not including the Dr's fee and meds. Go strait to HEART Ctr at QC
Weird they dont have a heart monitor? Dont pay them and investigate!!!!!
This very serious Tom. I've suffered the same, on my own, I collapsed in my bedroom and had to force myself awake. I was losing body heat fast. So I had to overcome my own mind to get off the floor and then rest on my bed, until I calmed down. You're very lucky to have Lay to help you. I'm meeting my own girlfriend again soon in Philippines. Make sure to eat better and do training to keep healthy bro.
Stay safe
Very scary 😧 glad you are ok brother !
Yes, thank you
I hope you have travel medical insurance, Tom. There's really not much healthier options when you're eating out often. Most of the dishes are overly salty and greasy.
if the EKG showing ischemia and you experienced chest pain, likely you had a “heart attack”, it is very important to go to an advance hospital who can take care this type of problems, and see a cardiologist to get more test and possibly cardiac catheter, if you dont do this the next heart attacks will be worse, and I suggest go back to Ireland to get follow up check up since Philippine healthcare is expensive and chaotic…
Angina is what you're thinking about. It's unlikely.
@@ziggarillo RIGHT ......... CHEST PAIN AND ANGINA ARE MILES APART. 😂 🤣 😂
Philippines has expensive healthcare…I guess it’s comparative…It’s cheaper than American but it’s not free like the NHS
@@TRICK-OR-TREAT236 Don't be ridiculous, chest pain is literally the definition of angina.
@@TRICK-OR-TREAT236 What on earth are you on about?
My wife makes it clear that we need to be close to a good hospital when we make our final move..Seems like she might be correct..Glad you got past it...keep a bp machine handy,,they actually have the wrist ones that are small ,compact..And fingertip oxygen monitor,,both are inexpensive and easily fit in a backpack.
Yeh I would say she is right
Good luck at finding a good hospital let alone even a mediocre hospital in the Philippines
Do me a favor. Just eat well, exercise and stay away from stress and you'll avoid these hospital visits.
Just wondering where in Quezon City you’re staying. Because if you’re still in QC and something happens again or any emergency (hopefully not), there’s a St. Luke’s Hospital located in España Ext. It’s the original hospital before they built another one in the Global City.
be careful always
Next time, if the place is untidy and questionable. Pls go to the nearby hospital where they have a regular ER and resident doctor. Your well-being is the most important. You can save more money if you choose a decent one. No more clinics next time😂. Yes,some hospitals in phils never use gloves due to the management budget. , not unless if you're in St. Luke or other high-end private hospitals.
Nice
You gotta stay away from those fish eyes Tom😂😮😢
All street food make your own 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠they use to unsanitary you not.
That clinic/hospital room looked very clean compared to some I have been in China in more of the village areas
Tom. Being patient and be positive to be happy with and we both are smile
Good to know you are ok Tom and have Lay on your side.Stay healthy and get well soon.
Thanks
Good to know you’re doing alright, Tom! Thankful for Lay! ❤
Yes, Makati Med is about equal to a good US Hospital. The rich Filipinos use it. It is for sure the best hospital in the Philippines. I went there for a cyst on my back.
@Roaming Hogan. Woooow that sounds scary Tom and its like you where filming a part for the movie saw lol..😅😅
Jesus that was so expensive for all they done.😮
That's pretty scary, glad your lady was there to look after you.
Tom what a bloody experience you were lucky to have Lay with you,must admit l have been lucky when going to a public hospital in Cebu although the hospital was old the staff,nurses,doctors were fantastic and because i was only foreigner there the doctors treated me very well, its understandable how you felt and your and Lays reactions,look after your self mate and watch what you eating and drinking. There are some weird bugs and viruses around there, take care,
Top Hospitals In the Philippines:
1. Asian Hospital Alabang🎉
2. Makati Medical Center
3. St.Luke’s Hospital - QC
St. Luke’s hospital BGC.
4. medical city
This is in no particular order but we personally has been in Asian Hospital and me once in Makati Med for my leg X-ray when I fell from the stairs in my previous condo. This is the best to go to for whatever in the Philippines.
Tom wishing you all the best feel well soon lay will take care of you
Yeah Tom, Eat healthy. No more Convenience store food, no more Alcohol. And start taking Vitamins. Don, CA.
Stop eating unhealthy noodles🤣🤣
His a Top Ramen lifer. Haha 😄 😊😅
Yea, aim higher don’t live in a third world country.
Careful They can sue u for slander even if it is true
Oh my Fom, sorry to hear about the horrendous experience but if it's a blocked artery you need to get proper tests done. My husband had a block artery which was a hesrt attack and had to do surgery, so better get your tests done early. Feel better.
Tommy . You gotta lay off all the high salt high sugar stuff mate . Filipinos go to hospital with hypertension ( high salt) diabetes ( high sugar) and liver disease ( junk foods and high salt and msg ) . Kidney disease is very high all over the country.
Hopefully you have your eye on all the food and stuff in Filipino salt diet .
Crikey. Vermin scuttling under the bed on top of their poor care. How the hell does a hospital run out of stocks??? As others have said it’s lucky Lay was with you.Take care of yourself young lad.
This should be a wake up call for all those guys who sing the praises of the Philippines. Generally the healthcare is below par.
The hospital room looks like one in these abandoned hospital videos I watch. I noticed that she’s picking up on your accent, she’ll fit right in when she goes to Ireland.
Omg what an experience.. put it down to experience I guess 😮🙏
Dapat lay dinala mo sa saint Luke hospital QC or in Cardinal Santos hospital in San Juan.
There is a reason why the Philippines has such a young population, it's because nobody makes it to old age.
Average life span for a man is 67 with heart disease the number one killer. 35% of males smoke in the PH which would explain this.
What amazes me is when you travel around the world you can usually hear Tagalog in the majority of medical facilities but yet their facilities at home lack technology and professional help
Maybe report it to the authorities, this need to stop, they might do it to others
You two are still young go nature hiking ..you shouldn't be in the hospital ..
To me Tom. That hospital was going to keep you in no matter what. I was admitted to a hospital in Mandaue back in June 2019 when i dislocated my left shoulder n the hospital room not that clean and soo close to the traffic. I had to travel from Camotes Island to Danao City Emergency hospital n transfer to the city. Lucky Liza n her parents and sister Edebeth come with me. Such a nightmare Tom n doctors put my shoulder back in following day but did more damage inside the shoulder. I was operated on last year in February.
"WooooW" 😮 you need to see an attorney sounds like you got bad treatment at the first place. The main thing is you now seem better thats the important parts. Can't wait to hear the results from the real hospital and doctors. Them dam Roman and junk food you eat going to kill you bro .😮 ❤ ❤ ❤
Omg I think I will stick to living in Thailand
why did you bring him to that small clinic.
Hi Tom,
Very happy that you are okay now. I have worked in healthcare for over 30 years here in the US. I don’t think at your age it was your heart. With the low blood pressure I think you were dehydrated or had an illness from something you ate.?.?
I would get checked out and get a full physical and heart exam at a good facility. Better to be cautious. Every city has good and bad health care facilities. I would learn where the good ones are in any city I live in. That goes double if you are 60 years old or older. You don’t want to try to figure out what hospital is good or bad once you are sick. Know ahead of time.
Tom, you don't have to share if you don't want to but was it a virus? Dengue fever perhaps or just severe dehydration?
Your story makes me think of a Benny Hill Show sketch, with Jackie Wright as Roaming Hogan.
st.lukes is the best,not maksti med,
Now imagine having a baby in one of those hospitals? When a c section is required, and loos of blood. Dr comes out and says we need blood....
same experience I had in Baguio it was the worse my sheets were covered with dry blood from someone else and they told me it was clean
Sir the insta 360 x4 is coming out in 4 days. I enjoy filming with the previous version without a selfie stick , it also fits nicely in a pocket and the stabilization is very good , better than the action 4 sir
Wow what a nightmare !
Tom thank God for Ly u need to go for a real check up we are all worried we pray 🙏
Yes, especially your young but the heart cant work if it’s clogged up, ask the Doc to treat you with EDTA cleanser works great
Hello young shipmate Tom. Listen buddy get yourself to a 'good' hospital and get a full professional check-up ok. That is number one. It will be a little expensive, but your mind will rest a lot easier for it. If you have anything going on it is best to catch it early. Number two -- go to church and give thanks that you have Lay with you -- it seems like she really cares for you amigo. Get better young man. I have enjoyed and do enjoy watching your videos.
We had a bad experience at a hospital in Panabo city,that hospital is a joke,I won’t go there again, I’d rather suffer
Im thinking of emigrating there soon (from UK) and have just found out i have heart trouble too but with very high blood pressure. When i went to the hospital Romford, London i had to wait 28hrs in the waiting room!! Although once in the system treatment was good and free (at point of service). Im gonna have some fun when i move tgere it seems.
All the best Brother Tom💪🏽❤️take care and stop drink Alcohol!! and eat healthy. And take care of you boddy
But you need too go too a good hospital or clinic
And it's unbelievable that nurses don't know what they're doing, they need to be better trained
Stopped to eat all that pork Also is not good
Chicken, fish, vegetables, and a lot of fruit
Thanks
Nothing wrong with drinking San Miguel.. as long as you eat right. Eating right though is one of the hardest things to do in the Philippines.
@@randellt 👌🏽
Healthcare quality can vary big time in the Philippine. Makati medical center is western standard for the most part, efforts should be made to find a good private hospital…Too many vloggers are show casing the best hospitals in the country, you experienced a middle of the road clinic. Far from the worst, the worst don’t have equipment…Your young for ischemia…smoking? History of bad habits may be catching up. It should be a wake up call.
Lay saved your life. Tom you are young and need to find out what is happening to your heart. I am planning a trip to the Philippines and know which hospital and insurance to purchase. I couldn't believe they didn't give you an EKG.
I am very happy you are going to another hospital. Your clips look like you are in storage room and not a hospital.
The new blood pressure devices go with your index finger inside a clip and goes on your hand. What a nightmare.
Glad you’re ok Tom..take care yourselfs….i had to laugh when lye said they ran out of paper….lol…..tom please go get a check up tho..
Oh my God why the hospital 🏥 like that ?
Tom.
If I told you the first hospital was an organ harvesting clinic would it help you make sense of all the confusion you were put through?
It fits the narrative very well
Maybe you should drink lots of water tom. For hydration.
