Had no problem getting insurance. Most companies just treat it as another pre-existing condition and add a small premium to your insurance.

Hiya!

Thank you so much for your help, I havent been on holiday since I was diagnosed three years ago, I am still walking but not very far and not for long, I have just got my wheelchair so I am off to Dubai in October with my daughter and two grandsons to see my son and his wife, something I could not have even attempted this without it. Thank you for all your suggestions xxxxxx
