In the UK there is an insurance company who will take you on, but life insurance is slightly higher about £40 a month as opposed to £12 a month - all they want is a letter off your consultant to say that you are now transfusion independent. Their belief replicated mine really - you have just as much chance getting killed driving to work, but nobody stops insuring drivers.....
as for the leukemia bit - I was told it was more likely while you are on cyclosporin, as this suppresses T cells which would normally fight cancer cells, but don't quote me. xx 20 years. wow, if I last 20 years I will be 73!
