Hello can anyone help me I have been struggling to find travel insurance for the last three months without success. This is my first opportunity to have a week in the sun since my cancer returned in 2015 and my doctor and nurse both agree it's a good idea and support me in going.Â
In my ignorance I didn't anticipate any problems and contacted insurepink who I've used several times prior to 2015. After the lengthy questions I was told that because my cancer wasn't 'stable' they wouldnt insure me, this was based on my treatments being changed as scans showed small progression.
Since then I have tried several other 'cancer specialist' insurance companies and a broker who have either quoted my astronomical premiums or just refused me.
Apparently because I take Zomorph (50mg twice daily) this is seen as an increased risk? I am now panicking as I travel on Saturday 2/6/18 and am faced with the scary prospect of travelling without insurance. How do people with advanced cancer or on lots of pain relief manage to get insurance I really could use some advice.
Thanks for letting us know .
