Bi Polar & Travel Insurance

[cleoval]

Hi I have mild bipolar disorder and want to go on holiday to the States. Can anyone reccomend a good travel insurer please. ? I am also. 61 years old. Thanks.

I'm bipolar too. I had a rough time trying to get travel insurance for a holiday to the US a few years back. I ended up with a policy from Tesco which cost almost as much as the trip. In the end, the trip never happened.

Have a good trip

Are you on medication?

I've found Tesco to be very good.

I have a few medical issues and I listed them and the meds I was on. It cost about £5 more than the year before (this was in Europe though)
