Yes, Have T-Mobile send you a new one (or go in to a T-Mobile store). You'll probably get charged for the new one.
Also, if someone "found" your SIM card, they could put it in any GSM phone and make calls and/or access the internet causing your bill to be outrageous. If you haven't already done so, report the SIM card lost so that it is deactivated.

Yeah, just go into the store and tell them that you lost your SIM card. They will give you a new one and program your current number into it. You may lose all of your contact numbers though if they were only stored to you SIM card.

all you have to do is go into any t-mobile location and ask for a sim card and have them put the new simcard on your account. You will still have the same number and plan and everything. Then put the sim in your phone and it will work just fine.

Yes the phone company should eb able to deactivate your old sim card and you will have to buy a new one but you can still have your old number just call the cell provider

i dont think its a good idea to keep ur phone number.
someone might have found it and used it. the best thing is to cancel it and get a new SIM card
