Some time ago I read an article and there was something on TV also about MacMillan Nurses.

They had set up a scheme to enable people in your position obtain insurance at a reasonable price, following complaints that exorbitant prices were being quoted by some companies.

Had a quick look on their website but could not find a link to that particular subject. Perhaps it would be easier to give them a ring.

You could try Allclear for a quote, they were very helpful when I phoned them:

Hi
I had a similar problem last year,had to cancel my holiday due to being diagnosed with Cancer, all is well now, but getting Insurance has been a pain in the B.......e. I eventually got insurance with Direct Line an annual cover was approx £143 for myself and my partner.This covered me if the breast cancer returned or I was ill with anything in connection with it.
I rang around but eventually I got fed up of repeating the story about my illness so went with D.L.
I found some insurance companies would offer to insure me but not cover for the breast cancer,or they would give me the option of cover or no cover. I felt I needed the security of insurance so wouldnt take that chance.
Hope you get it sorted

Have you tried Cover My Travels. They have a website where you can get an initial quote but you have to phone for cover for medical conditions. It didn't take too long and the price was much better than I was quoted elsewhere.
