Does anyone know of travel insurance companies that cover cancer related lymphoedema?
I have just been refused on the basis I have an operation in the pipeline for June.
It's a special Birthday. I booked the holiday in September last year not knowing I would get the operation.
Many Thanks
Who is declining cover? Your usual insurer? Do you already have lymphoedema? Where are you going? Is it a 'high risk country (for infectious diseases)? A long haul flight?
Some companies are no problem - but there are a few who simply won't take the risk. My bank covers travel insurance, amongst other things.
Use the search option on this page, and put either travel or insurance as the key word - this subject has cropped up before.
Has your travel agent got any suggestions?
Hi Lynora
Insurewith was recommended and refused me as I have an operation in June.
My bank provides travel insurance but lymphoedema is excluded.
I'm flying to Las Vegas and Cancun, quite a few flights.
Someone has suggested insure pink
I'll try again today. Just panicked last night.
Cheers
