Vague travel insurance news stories
Discussion
I've seen a few of these stories where people haven't been able to get home lately...

But they're kinda useless without revealing some detail, presumably they don't want to highlight the error (assuming it's an error) out of respect for the families? Despite being in my early 30s I have a catalogue of previous illnesses (myocarditis, pneumonia, kidney stones) and whilst I declare everything to the letter I do feel incredibly paranoid, particularly as the myocarditis was a complex life-threatening case. Technically it's a one-off and I was given the all clear, but if you've had it once you're more likely to have it again. Same goes for the kidney stones, currently clear but my body chucks them out every few years, I'm x-rayed every 24 months as a precaution but obviously a lot can happen in that time.
How do others manage previous illnesses etc? Whilst I discuss them in detail on the phone, the paperwork that inevitably comes through is vague to say the least as they are usually just a short one line summary.
