Hi, I'm hoping someone can help. I had my lumpectomy on 22nd December, 49mm with clean margins and no spread to lymph nodes. I am currently awaiting radiotherapy (no chemo needed) and have started Tamoxifen. I have a holiday booked for 5th May (was booked before diagnosis) and it will.probably be before my radiotherapy starts as I've had some wound infection so only just healing now.
I have searched online for travel insurance and am really struggling to find anywhere that will cover me. Has anyone else managed to get cover and if so where from please?
Looking forward to this few days away has really helped me get through the last few weeks. I will be gutted if I can't get any cover x
Hi Fly7
Unfortunately, as you've found, it can be more difficult to find travel insurance when you've had a cancer diagnosis so can I recommend that you join us over in the travel insurance group where you'll find recommendations from others who have been successful. Once you've joined look for the thread called 'recommended travel insurance' as this is where the majority of recommendations are.
Most people say that it's best to phone the insurance companies rather than try and do online quotes as often at the end of the online quote it will tell you to phone the company and you'll then have to go through all the information again. Also, sometimes the broker can refer to the underwriters to see if they would provide cover when an online quote might just give you a straight refusal.
I hope this helps
