travel insurance

I am due to have an ablation in August but would like to go to spain before that. I am on flecainide and bisoprolol which keeps my AF under fairly good control. However trying to get travel insurance is very difficult because I am waiting a procedure. Does anyone know of a company that will take me on.

Ann. Search. On this forum and also the atrial fibrillation forum as ear have been a lot of posts including quite a few in the last few months.

My son has multiple health problems and he uses a company called Free Spirit for travel insurance, worth a try?

The Arrhythmia Alliance website has a list of travel insurers who have been known to be sympathetic to people with a heart condition. Please visit heartrhythmcharity.org.uk/w... for more information

An idea would be to post this on the AFA forum as well. Would make searching easier for people in future if you create as a new post on both sites.

Many tbanks to you all. At the moment all the suggested companies say no because I am waiting a procedure. Annoying really as my doctor says I am fit enough to travel.
