That's really strange as they covered my wife after a heart attack & coronary angioplasty, the only questions that were asked when entering it under pre-existing conditions were:

Coronary angioplasty
• How long ago was your angioplasty or stenting performed?
• How many heart attacks have you had in total?
• Have you EVER had any chest pain or chest tightness since your last procedure?
• How many coronary stents do you have?
• Can you always walk 200 metres on the flat without becoming short of breath?
• Have you been advised to take medication for high blood pressure?

The key question was regarding how long the angioplasty had been done, less or more than 6 weeks....

I had all those questions. The issue for them was that I was 'awaiting tests' .  In our area the waiting time was in the order of six months - for something similar to an ante natal pregnancy scan !

One thing to remember is that if you are over a certain age (can be different for different companies) they may not offer cover so best to check out their conditions before starting to fill in form online.
