Good morning all has anyone on here been abroad with Cirrosis and can recommend a company for the holiday insurance please? I've been looking at quotes and they are through the roof! Some costing more for the insurance that the holiday 😳

Have you checked out the British Liver Trust page on Travel insurance - some suggested companies etc. on there. britishlivertrust.org.uk/in...

Key thing for you is to make sure your doctor is happy for you to fly. Varices are the big risk together with infection risk.

Avanti are really good. Cirrhosis alone is only slightly more expensive than a normal policy…it’s the varices that push up the price. Also the annual policies are priced at a premium because it covers all eventualities. The liver is notoriously unpredictable and if you’re newly diagnosed they won’t be sure what they are covering. As my condition stabilised my policy came down in price. Depending on how much you travel you may find that shorter length policies are cheaper.
