Are you currently on interferon injections for the MPD? If so, you may need to get a covering letter from your doctor to enable you to take injections on board a plane, should you be flying as part of your travel plans.

Have you tried any insurance companies yet and been turned down for cover?

Do you have a European Health Insurance card to cover you for the basics in EU countries?

Have you researched any companies so far that will provide travel insurance without asking about pre-existing conditions?
