Airplanes and insulin pump, safety control.

Hello,

It is the first time that I am going to travel with insulin pump by plane and I would like to know what you usually do, we cannot have it in contact with great power electromagnetic waves as in the case of a resonance, CT, X -rays.

How do you do to go through the arch?

I don't know very well how much intensity it is and if it could affect the insulin pump.Anyone who knows about this subject?

Thanks in advance.

All the best.

I have traveled several times in Europe and Asia and I have never stopped or taken the bomb or the dexcom, and all good.Because they have no problems, nor the security arches have not been pidered and in any case carried the doctor's certificate in I Gles.

Hello, in case someone serves for future trips.When I went to destiny I did not say anything and it happened and it is true as Jaume says that neither he whistled nor anything at all, when I returned back I said that I could not go through the arch because I was carrying insulin microinfusora a woman cache me, the strip passed meOf explosives and ready, I told him that if I wanted he had the report and told me it was not necessary.
Now that I carry sensor that is also sensitive to electromagnetic fields because I will say it.
All the best

Hello, I do not carry a bomb but if dexcom.From Novalab they confirmed that there is no risk of going through the arc with the sensor.I always pass, I have passed with the same sensor by 5-6 arches on more than two occasions and they have always worked as well, and same duration.
Keep in mind that airport electric arches emit less radiation than a mobile phone or a microwave, a computer ... the mobile we take it all day on top.So not alarming yourself, it is not necessary to ask for the manual detector.

Greetings
