    Not having any luck finding out where or how to go about getting myself and my husband COVID boosters. He had his last one in March 2022 and I had my last one late last year.

    Emergency dentist cost

    I have heard very good things about Dental DAS work. But. My experience years ago was that they were very very overpriced. I sat in the dental chair for no more than 5 minutes when I was offered to straighten and whiten my teeth at that very visit for lots and lots of money. I left pale faced...

    New Dentist

    Today I went to a recommended dentist with a cracked premolar. I had to pay 50,000 pesos for the root canal! They quoted me another 50,000 peses for the post implantation and 545 dollars for the enamel crown. Does that seem steep?

    Will U.s. Expats Have To Pay Into Obamacare?

    I am looking, albeit belatedly, for a document to consult about all this. Do I need to enroll in something Obamacare-wise in order to avoid a penalty? Is Medicare enough? Since I lived out of the US for more than 330 days in 2013, does that matter for some reason? Feeling like I haven't been...

    We have a friend flying to BA from the States. She will bring us some doctor samples of Pradaxa. Are there any particular problems we should anticipate? Do we need a doctor's note or prescription or ... We have bought this medicine here without a prescription. Thanks for any insight.

    Dollars For Dollars -- What's The Risk?

    Hypothetically this would be a private party, friend of a friend. No commission since the deal would be mutually beneficial. I am having trouble seeing the down side.
