I couldn't get insurance to travel let alone for a wedding. So if you do manage to find a company that will insure you please let us know!!

Sometimes the diagnostic stage when you don't know what you are dealing with is the worst stage of all from an insurance point of view.

Yeah, we couldn't either. I heard someone say there is one insurance company that is more likely to insure people, but the insurance costs a helluva lot more than the actual holiday.

Matt, the way insurance works, they want to make a profit. Basically, they want you to pay them in the hope they never need to ever pay out. Free money. You having cancer or suspected cancer means they could be faced with paying out 1000's should you take unwell. They want all that money and more, probably. So sometimes folk just travel without. I'm not suggesting you do this at all, but if they calculate the probability of you needing 10k worth of treatment, they will want 10k plus admin costs before giving you insurance.

Some price things so high, it's nothing more than another way of saying "no". As the person above said, the diagnostic stage just gets bundled together with those who have been diagnosed with it. Makes no difference.

A history search on here would also show you, even a cancer scare, that doesn't turn out to be cancer still increases your future premiums too.
