What is fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is a long-term condition that causes widespread pain, fatigue, and tenderness throughout the body, affecting approximately 1 in 20 people across the UK.
With the right preparation, medical guidance, and suitable travel insurance, many people who manage fibromyalgia with medication or supervision continue to travel abroad with confidence.
Having the right travel insurance in place for fibromyalgia can help to cover:
- Emergency medical treatment if your condition worsens during your trip
- Hospital stays and related medical expenses abroad
- Medical repatriation to the UK if further treatment is needed
- Cancellation costs if you have to cancel your trip for medical reasons
Travel advice for people with a musculoskeletal condition like fibromyalgia
- Plan activities at a comfortable pace that suits your fibromyalgia
- Consider taxis or public transport to cut down on walking
- Take time to rest if fibromyalgia pain or stiffness increases
- Pack any mobility aids you rely on at home
During the quote process, we will ask about any pre-existing medical conditions, including musculoskeletal conditions. If relevant, you will need to declare your fibromyalgia on the policy.
Getting travel insurance if you have fibromyalgia is often still possible. The level of cover depends on your diagnosis and current treatment, so take care to give accurate details when you complete the medical declaration.
