Hi,

My husband and I are travelling to Turkey at the end of the year.  I am looking to get travel insurance and wonder if others have been there before me and have information about insurance companies and coverage for those that have had BC?

I was diagnosed in 2011, with BC also in my nodes but not passed them.  So I don't know if this is relevant to an insurer.

Thank You,
Julia

    Hi Julia, Margiemoo is right - there was a recent blog post about travel insurance. You can find it here: http://www.bcna.org.au/user/16807/blog/75661

    Hi,

    Thanks Daina for that thread.  After reading it I went to the Covermore site and they automatically cover you for BC as long as it has not spread past the primary site.

    I also went further to checkout addtional cover that you can buy on top of their normal policy.  In my case I ticked "lymph node involvement only" and it was going to cost another seventy something dollars for cover.

    So it seems like this company may be a goer for me.
