I’ve never used my phone to call when I am in a different country. I’ve tried google, but I’m confused. It seems like I need to dial +44 and their number. Is that right? My T Mobile has included international calls. This will probably be the only actual call I make!

Just pointing out that the link you provided has the steps to take to make a call from the USA to another country, which isn't the info needed in this instance. @ATG will need to click on the link that was on the page that you linked. I was just cutting out the "middle man" page of unnecessary information and pointing out that just because you have "international calling" on your phone plan (when in the USA) doesn't necessarily mean you'll be able to make a call when in another country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenquixote66 Posted June 6 #123114 Share Posted June 6 I went to my Dentist for my semi annual check up.Although I am not in any pain the X-rays he took show that I have two fractured teeth under a bridge.He told me that the teeth need to be extracted and implants will be required. He further said that it is imperative that this is addressed as soon as possible because it is possible that I could swallow a piece of broken tooth during my sleep causing damage to my intestines . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My T Mobile has included international calls. This will probably be the only actual call I make! The kids and I use texting most of the time with Skype calls. @brillohead pointed you in the right direction for making local calls while in a foreign country on T Mobile. You will indeed first need to dial +44 to make the call. In case it's not clear, you enter the + by pressing and holding the zero for a couple of seconds. When you first touch the zero, you'll see the zero appear. Keep pressing the zero (you'll hear the noise continuously) until the zero on the screen changes to a +. Easy to practice this at home. Just don't hit the button to actually make the call. Hit the backspace button instead to clear the screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted June 6 #123118 Share Posted June 6 Well the hits keep on coming. Bad enough still trying to rehab the knee, then deal with hernia, then needing periodontal work in a couple of weeks. Plus next week is my MRI to see if I have any prostate cancer. Today I went for a skin cancer checkup. They did one biopsy on a piece by my forehead but they are concerned with a some spots starting to develop on my bald head. Turns out they want me to come back after our October cruise to get a topical chemotherapy cream to put on my head called “Efudex.” The side effects sound horrible. Anyone have experience with this topical chemotherapy cream on their head? Thoughts and advice is greatly appreciated. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can always pick someone out who is using Efudex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also read where it is toxic to pets and do not let pets lick your head which is what Charlie loves to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are the teeth located? Is it imperative that they be replaced with implants? Can you go without the teeth? I wanted to get an implant for a first molar that had to come out and my dentist suggested leaving it alone. He said it’s to close to the sinus cavity and there could be problems if he put in an implant. I definitely don’t need any problems with my sinuses as much as I hate not having it.

Mike had to use a cream that seems to do about the same thing from what I just read. It says Fluorouracil “It works by killing fast-growing cells such as the abnormal cells in actinic keratoses and basal cell carcinoma.” Efudex says “This medication is used on the skin to treat pre-cancerous and cancerous skin growths. Fluorouracil belongs to a class of medications known as anti-metabolites. It works by blocking the growth of abnormal cells that cause the skin condition.” Sounds like the same thing to me, but I’m sure @Ocean Boy would know more. I just got this medical knowledge from Mr. Google. 😆 Edited June 6 by ReneeFLL 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
