Greek T3

Hi, just to say I’m on holiday in Skala, Kefalonia and had planned to stock up on T3. The pharmacist told me it was impossible to get hold of any - it’s all being sold to the UK!! Bah.

Sorry about that - reading around, a few years ago, smaller more independent pharmacies might be a thought ?

Otherwise enjoy the holiday, retsina and octopus and olive hors d'oeuvres !!

That may just be an excuse not to sell you any, especially if you asked for quite a few boxes, eg a year's worth. How much did you ask for?

Some are more helpful than others and may order a few boxes in for your, others may be willing to sell one or two boxes, it's a bit of a gamble but if you can get to other pharmacies you might have better luck. Just ask for one or two boxes then look for another pharmacy.

Enjoy your holiday I have been to Skala a couple of times and done the Ithaca trip twice, I love it there. Glad you managed to get one box of T3 at least. If you have any more trips planned you may find other pharmacies that can supply you with some T3. Hopefully you will come across any pharmacy soon.

I hope it's not the new norm. My daughter went to Zante last year and got me 6 boxes, she's going again in August and will try and get me some more so I'm keeping 🤞
