I am Myanmar and reporting from Bangkok.

I was upstairs, at third floor and was going down to have lunch and it shook whole house. At first I thought I am having nausea due to not having any food yet then thing starts to shake violently almost knocked me off stairs . And glasses started to rumble.

A construction in Pathunam collapsed.

Some house of friends of mine in Mandalay - Myanmar collapsed. One girl managed to get out in time.

One construction in Mandalay collapsed - 2 died.

Mandalay looks to be almost exactly in the center of the worst of it...

It also appears to have gone through the heart of Tatmadaw territory [1].

Yeah several Junta building destroyed including notorious tataroo military Air field which is responsible for bombing several hundred of innocent civilian's.

How is the state of the various other bridges beside Saigang (eg. Chauk, Pakokku, Magway, Pyay, Tigyaing)?

Much of Saigang, Rakhine, and Kachin might be cut off from the rest of Myanmar, dramatically affecting logistics (though I think land logistics to Rakhine have already largely ended before the earthquake)

Also, I hope your family hasn't been drastically impacted.
