travel insurance waiting for medical appt

Can anyone recommend a company that will cover someone over 70,with pre-existing conditions, and also awaiting an appointment for diagnosis for another? I was insured with Insure and Escape last year, and declared dizziness, along side other conditions. I am now awaiting an appointment with ENT, to find the cause, and now they won't insure me. My daughter has booked us a holiday, and it's getting urgent now. Thanks

    Insurance companies don’t like uncertainty They are are happier to cover someone with a diagnosis than someone still awaiting tests.
    You might struggle unless you look at exclusions and that may depend on what your specific referral is for.

    Unfortunately they don't cover you if you are awaiting a diagnosis
