Going on holiday with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) may require extra planning, but with the right Travel Insurance, you can still enjoy your holiday.

Always declare pre-existing medical conditions on your Travel Insurance and read the terms and conditions of your policy to ensure adequate cover.

Is irritable bowel syndrome considered a pre-existing medical condition?
