Travel Insurance advice pls!

[Becky01]

My son has Sclerosing cholangitis and ulcerative colitis and try as I might I can't get any of the mainstream to even consider cover even tho at the moment he is pretty well. I seem to recall a few people have chatted about this one before and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some decent companies - thanks all!

Hi Becky

I used:

medicitravel.com/

when I took my daughter to Spain earlier this year. Was well impressed when they had AIH on their system! It cost around £50 for a week, but some were £150. Mainstream wouldn't consider her. I think CLDF have a list too, can I suggest don't book your holiday without it organised first.

For my son we used AllClear travel insurance. Very helpful. And not too expensive.

I am having really bad trouble trying to insure my son. He has BA and portal hypertension. It's so much harder now than when he was younger. Mist will not sure him and the ones who will want loads of money. It's really getting me down now. All I want do is take my son on holiday x
