I have recently had an operation as a preventative due to early cancer cells detected.
I have insured car caravan and my husband to go away to the Netherlands. However they wanted another £100 for me due to having had this operation . I refused much to the annoyance of the person I was speaking to . But I said o I'm not paying it .
Should I just take a chance and not insure myself . I did say as long as the car caravan and my OH are covered that would be ok.

Any one on here who works in insurance .
Can I just take an independent health insurance just for me .

please pay the extra £ 100.put it down to life biting you on the bum.i have been in the same position of late.because of the cancer and being ill after kemo for about three weeks each time,had it twice kemo and each time the same.not able to use the caravan at all last year due to weakness from the chemicals pumped in to me.i have now sold the caravan,boo hoo.end of 14 years of good caravan holidays.because we could not go on a caravan holiday we decided to book a cruise.we always go with royal carrabian,spelling??? big does and little ones on insurance with the royal carrabian,after answering all the health questions and there were many the last question was on the cancer.that was it two put the phone down.one said i would not get to

go with the royal carrabian because of the cancer.we finished up going with PO who could find us insurance for a cruise.so now we can only go with PO.sorry its long so as i say i would pay and forget it because others may not be as kind to you.all true,one day spent 6 hours ringing round to get insurance,as soon as you mention the big C the phone goes dead.there loss its costing the royal many big bucks.

I had my 12 months all clear last week. Still think I'll struggle for any kind of health insurance though!
