Influencer Reveals Near-Death Experience from Appendicitis: Collapsed in Bathroom, Drove Herself to Hospital, Surgery Cost Hundreds of Thousands
Influencer Mintan Thaskaradaan collapsed from acute appendicitis and drove herself to hospital for emergency surgery that cost over 100,000 baht, revealing the ordeal as part of a difficult year she's faced largely in silence.
On May 17, 2025, well-known influencer 'Mintan Thaskaradaan' posted about her life-threatening ordeal with acute appendicitis. She began experiencing strange pain on the first day, and by the second day, the pain was so severe she lost consciousness in the bathroom without realizing she had appendicitis. Despite the agony, she forced herself to drive to a hospital for examination and emergency surgery at another facility.
In her post, she revealed that this year has been the most difficult and challenging of her life, filled with constant stress and obstacles she's had to battle alone. However, she chose not to share her struggles publicly to avoid worrying her fans. After working just one day following the initial pain, her abdominal pain became unbearable, leading to her collapse. Upon regaining consciousness, she drove herself to get checked and underwent emergency appendectomy surgery.
She emphasized that the appendicitis was just one of many hardships she faced this year, noting that the surgery alone cost her over 100,000 baht. Despite everything, she expressed gratitude for the experience and appealed to her fans for their understanding, saying she's worn the 'patient's gown' and hopes for their support.
