Under investigation for prostate cancer, travel insurance cancelled

I am sorry I cannot help you on your question. You most likely know, but just in case, do ensure you have GHIC cards anyway. They are not a substitute for travel insurance but can be very useful to work in tandem with it, should a health problem occur.

Hi

Try Insurancewith. I found them very good, asking  many in-depth questions other companies didn't ask.  The on line form is a bit of a faff to go through - aren't they all!

That said, I had been fully diagnosed, but I feel they may be able to help.

Hello MARIE76B 

I am totally in agreement with Static about the European Health cards.

As a Community Champion I am not able to advise on a particular Company however I can say the Company recommended by Scampidoodle are very good and if you contact them by telephone rather than filling in the online form they may be able to help.

I do hope you get sorted.

Best wishes - Brian.

I was told I wouldn't get insurance without a diagnosis.  At the time I was diagnosed I had good annual cover and notified them.  They would not cover me whilst waiting for a diagnosis and even afterwards would not cover me for any problems which would occur because of Prostate problems.  I didn't have any so was not worried about that.  Luckily, I was actually booked to go on holiday within Europe a week after diagnosis and then again a little while after that.  One of the holidays was a treat from my son.  Try Insurancewith as i had a friend who used them a few times and said they were good.

Enjoy your holiday.

Thanks so much for the advice,  I got cover with all clear,  they won't cover the undiagnosed but a reasonable price considering for all the usual travel insurance and diagnosed conditions,  .which is perfect considering. Thanks to this group yet again,  a wonderful bunch. Stay well x

Hello MARIE76B 

That's great news - enjoy Italy - I am sure you both deserve a break and it will do you both good.

Best wishes - Brian.

• Pleased that you managed to get cover. The only 2 companies that I could find that would meet our travel needs was all clear and insure and go. They will cover for Europe only and not worldwide
