Hello,

Thank you
Good I have flown, to national destinations and without problems.
Greetings
Without problem @"David Leon" I have traveled since I have it to the United States and England, the only thing, I recommend taking the report of your doctor in which to put what things you have to take with you (insulin, strips, clicks, needles, needles, needles, needles,Freestyle, sensors, etc).
All the best.

Hi David, when I use Frestyle as Nigiri said, he had the doctor's justification for all like this, you can pass glucagon strips traveling out of Spain but also at the national level.Eye I don't pass the arches.I ask for a policeman, because I proved that the arch and the Frestyle passed 2 times broke down.Now with the Dexcom with greater reason, it is more I could pass juices and coca-cola in the can x my hypoglycemic trend.
I have spent arches with the freestyle and nothing has happened.Neither whistle, nor stop working.I also travel the letter from my endocrine saying that I am diabetic and what medication I have.But zero problems with the arches.

The same without problems
On page 80 of the Free Style II manual it is expressed that some entire body scanners include X -rays or millimeter radio waves to which the sensor should not be exposed.
This is also said by the manual of the previous device and I have made several trips in which I have not been scanned and they have cracked me manually.
However, Abbott's nurse and assistant who have given me the sensors in the FJD, have told me that there were no problems in passing the airport scanners.
What do we do?

What do we do?The question is: What can you do?
@Rubioares
I have passed in Frankfurt at the airport many times, when you could travel peacefully, for all kinds of scanners, old and modern full body and both with the Abbott sensor and with Dexcom, and the truth without problems.Of course, in the prospect they warn, I imagine that just in case, to cover themselves.But they have never affected me.

I have gone through the arc innumerable times, with Dexcom and now with Medtronic and nothing has never happened.You tell the gringos that you cannot go through the arch and give them absolutely the same.Of course, arc and then good cacheo.
