Do I have to get the insurance that treats pre - existing conditions?

they will have a sample list of pre existing conditions on the leaflet/website, but you need to speak to them directly to be 100%.

pre existing conditions usually include cv, heart, lung problems, cancer (whether treated or not) i.e. real stuff not broken bones unless it has caused other issues.

also any meds you are on...beta blockers etc.
 
Best speak to the insurance company to enquire what they consider a pre-existing "condition".

If you're on beta-blockers it shouldn't really make much of a difference. If you're heading abroad to chuck yourself off a landmark like the Eiffel Tower you won't have much need for insurance anyway. :)
