Holiday Insurance - Silly Question?
Holiday Insurance - Silly Question?
Getting my head round ms specific holiday insurance. My wife has RRMS - only diagnosed 12 months and has needed 3 steroid treatments to date. The major issue has been with her legs - she can walk unaided (but very slowly). Not sure what her limit is but we walk daily for about 15mins and shopping is not a problem apart from being over taken by 80 year olds! We are going to Europe for a holiday and the issue of insurance has come up. In reality I think the worst thing that could go wrong whilst away is a major relapse but I assume even with insurance one would not have steroids on hand. We are new to this MS game but learning - I just wondered what the general 'feel' was (if there is one with such an individual condition) re holiday insurance.
in my experience i did not qualify for pre-existing condition travel health insurance until i was considered stable for three months. then i could pay the $600 health insurance, and buy my ticket. i was going to australia, from canada, for 5 months.
