    Hi. I have used Insure and Go which has been pretty reasonable. You can get a quote online. Some have been super expensive but they were much cheaper.

    I bought some the other week through insureandgo but didn't declare my condition

    This means that if I fall ill and that illness is in any way related to vasculitis, I have no cover

    The drugs I use mean that my symptoms are very mild, and so that situation is highly unlikely to arise

    For your dad, you should start by assessing the severity of the symptoms and whether those symptoms are likely to be stable

      Hi 

      I think I would check with your insurance because you declared a condition this should not discount you from still being covered that’s why the premium will be higher as they are covering their risk to insure you for that condition
