I use Direct Line, it is a disclosed medical condition

I don't use anything special for the flight. It's apparently not the type of illness which acts suddenly or that's what I have been told. If I get sick abroad, I just fork out payment. I find this is cheaper than private insurance.

Try an insurance company that insures for health problems there are quite a few around have used Fish before and good to go there are quite a few now

I cruise a lot and medical treatment on board can be very expensive. My last couple of times I've used StaySure Insurence, they are friendly and very reasonable. I have SCA but they insure me for FA as they dont have SCA on thier list but they assure me that cover is just the same. Always best to talk to someone rather than just try to complete the forms online, I find in this instance. I would never risk traveling without insurence cover for my condition, these companies will always try to wriggle out of paying, don't give them an excuse, Ataxia is difficult to hide.

I use allcleartravel.com and find them very reasonable for pre-existing. I have ICA.
