Update...I am at TIA (Tampa) and just cleared TSA. No issue with me...went through regular security...no pat down and no x-ray! Wow, what a surprise. Packed my lymph pump and garment in two carry ons....both max size (machine is large and the garment is arm plus torso, so it is bulky. TSA had me open the one with machine and wires (I had the manual on top of it) and they only swiped it with pad...did not have to take it out of bag. WOW..it all seems too easy this leg of the trip. But on my return flight I go to Miami and things might be more what we all suspected could happen! My old normal had me making 50 flights a year...so I am used to travelling. Husband hardly every flies...but he got through with no issue with his s/s clips in chest! Now...Mexico here I come...barefoot on the beach for 3 weeks.........I will keep in touch and post a photo or two, and sip a margarita for you all! Hugs
