Hi,
I have tried to have a look through the specific travel insurance forum but finding it hard to find the answer. I have a 4 night trip to Portugal booked on 30th May but I have surgery (wide local excision) on 16th May - my doctor and the support nurse confirmed I will be ok to travel. The issue I’m having is getting insurance right now as I am awaiting the surgery pre trip. I spoke to insurewith but they were unable to provide cover at the moment. I tried the comparison site for medical cover and one company came up but it is £270. Has anyone had any success or would it be ok to wait until after surgery so I can declare I am not awaiting treatment?
Any advice welcome, thanks x
