How should I prepare for my trip?

 

For many people, trips away are an important part of life after a prostate cancer diagnosis. To help things go smoothly while travelling, here are some things you might want to prepare in advance.  

Pre-travel checklist for travelling with prostate cancer

 

  • Speak to your care team before booking for advice on when’s a good time to take a trip and how to plan it, especially around any treatment.

  • Speak to your GP or pharmacist about whether you may need travel vaccines, and which would be suitable if you’re having chemotherapy or have had chemotherapy in the last six months.

  • Give yourself enough time to prepare enough medication for the whole trip plus a few extra days just in case. 

  • Check any restrictions on travelling with medication in the country you’re visiting, including whether you need a signed doctor’s letter, which you can check with the country’s embassy.  

  • If you use a catheter, speak to your nurse about catheter care abroad and prepare plenty of spare materials.

  • If you’re travelling in Europe, get a GHIC – remember, this doesn’t replace travel insurance. 

 

If you don't have a GHIC, want to find out more, or have an EHIC, have a read of our guide for more information.
