Hello
i was diagnosed with Pseudo Myxoma Peritoni early this year and had complete cytoreductive surgery 25/5/23, and(HIPEC)at Basingstoke Hospital. This was successful and I was discharged after two weeks, I am recovering well. We are planning to take a short holiday Europe in Oct. Can anyone advise on travel insurance. Thanks
Hello PEM36
We all need a holiday and it's a good idea having travel insurance when travelling with any cancer.
Can I point you in the direction of Travel insurance forum for cancer patients . If you click on the link I have created this will take you there and there's plenty of good advice there. If you need any further help please come back to me.
Have a great holiday.
Best wishes - Brian.

You aren't the only one - I am 67, newly "promoted" to Community Champion and finding my feet! I had to check once I had put my post up that the link worked!!
On a personal note for travel insurance I find most insurance companies use the same algorithms to calculate your premium and once you complete the long online form - it asks you to ring for a quote! We gave up filling the forms in online and just rang about 3 companies before we found what we wanted.
Good luck - enjoy your break.
Best wishes - Brian.
