Re: first experience visiting GESY doctor

I found this , “Will the GHS cover original products as well or just generics? The GHS will fully cover some original products in case that the product is under patent or there is no generic product available in the catalogue. The use of generics aims at saving resources.

Re: first experience visiting GESY doctor

Please, anyone, please do let us know if you change a pharmacy's stance on this.. Hi Trev, I spoke to my Pharmacist and showed him a print out of the link quoted by Mr. Blobby and he pointed out, predictably, that the link was not to the GESY site and therefore could not be considered factual. I th...

Re: first experience visiting GESY doctor

Thanks Mr. Blobby, now that I have that I can show them and hopefully get the Ezetrol under the GHS. I did a google for Aliquis Apixaban and I'm pretty sure it is the alternative to Warfarin for my conditions.

Cyta 1018 service

Found out yesterday that, without any advance notification, Cyta have discontinued the above service for very cheap overseas calls. They say there is an alternative available which allows various plans for various numbers of minutes of calls per month at a fixed price. Very disappointing attitude no...

Re: Dark side of the Med

Of particular interest to olive tree owners/farmers was the spread of a pathogen, which is killing the trees particularly in the main Italian Olive oil-producing area of Puglia, which is likely to spread to other such areas around the Mediterranean.

Re: Konia Island

If that upturned part is reflective, as it appears to be in some of the sketches, then there could well be some well-dazzled drivers approaching from Limassol direction at certain times of the 300+ sunny days.

Our Pharmacist offered the standard one at around 7 euros or a new one which included several more strains of the virus at 14.50 euros which we chose.

Re: Wood burner v Pellet burner heaters

"Efficient log burners need electricity as well, for the fan that blows the heat into the room. These are the models that Thermodynamics et al are selling. We love ours."

Not necessarily true we have a fan mounted on top of the stove which works from the heat of the stove.

Re: Paphos Villages

The disappointing thing is that Cyta recently promoted various upgrades including that those on 12mb would be upgraded to 20mb but here we cannot because Cyta haven't and, as far as they have made me aware, won't be providing adequate infrastructure for this potential improvement in service. Perhaps...

From 1st September, broadband speed will increase and prices will drop. For example my current 16mb will increase to 20mb and upload from 750 to 1mb. Great news!
