    Digressing a bit; nurse suggested to me that I should take statins because then I can 'eat anything I liked'; she said she takes them. Only problem was the nurse was absolutely huge! I declined as have heard some bad experiences with statins; just need to cut down on the chips.

    must have been the same nurse. This practically mirrors his experience.

    My point is that travel insurers ask questions you sometimes dont know how to answer. Have i EVER had high blood pressure? Yes, 23 years ago when pregnant. Does that count? Have i EVER suffered a mental health issue? Yes, 22 years ago after birth. How are either of those impacting on my health now?

    Nevertheless answer those questions honestly! They aren't ambiguous and look easy to answer yes to

    Should a claim arise any false responses could give the insurer grounds for voiding the policy should the false responses be relevant to the claim
