Travel Insurance for ITP & PBC

Hi looking for some Travel Insurance advice. I am currently insured through my Bank and AVIVA but my conditions ITP, PBC and my Kidneys are not covered. I am more than a little annoyed about my Kidneys not being covered as all that was wrong was 3 years ago I became dehydrated and it affected my Kidneys and over one weekend in hospital I was re hydrated. ITP and PBC controlled by Romiplostin injections self administrated once every three weeks and Ursodexacholic acid. I can appreciate those conditions may attract a higher premium but just not to be covered at all is worrying. Can anyone recommend a Company that takes an intelligent view of auto immune conditions and provides cover at a reasonable cost.

Thank you I will. I have always felt confident traveling in Europe but with Brexit looming I really want good travel insurance cover.
