It depends upon the condition; if it is certain to be fatal, it is unlikely that you can get insurance. For more minor conditions, however, if you fully disclose that you have the condition, you should be able to get life insurance. Your premiums will be higher, but the coverage is available.

First, check with several insurers for quotes and make certain you are up-front about your conditions, otherwise, your policy can be voided when a claim is made. Depending on your condition, your premium may be higher. However, unless you have a life-threatening disease, you should be able to find coverage.

It will be hard to find a insurance company that will cover pre-existing contidions. If you find one it will cost you plenty. You would be better off buying CD's or an IRA.
