Hi. Just thought I would pass on some traveling secrets. Now with these new limits to the weight you can have in your suitcase (and to give airport security a heads up), I always get a hold of Customer Service of the airline and let them know my condition and I need a bigger weight allowance. I usually receive a letter (or e-mail). Never had to pay extra.
I have been patted down and the security asked if I had a money belt. I told her what I really was "packing" and offered to show her. She smiled and said have a great holiday. I have also had scissors in my carry-on and when I told them what it was for, the security put them back and let me go on with them.
I still would like for security to take me in the room and try and do a rectal exam. I mean if they can find it (yes, it is gone!) then my god it is a miracle!! I would laugh so hard.
I also have a port-a-cath.. it is a metal disk under the skin below my clavicle. It is for venous access because I require frequent rehydration. I have the card explaining what it is and so far, nobody has asked to see it. It sets off the metal detectors.
Anybody have any other tips?
