[QUOTE="h884, post: 2585523, member: 393225"] I empathise with you. I had a similar experience at Bristol Airport. I use the Omnipod Dash which cannot go though the scanner. I explained this. They then frisked me and swabbed my Omnipod Dash. They then marched me across the concourse to a small room by 2 members of staff, minus my shoes. They examined my pod and swabbed that as well. After this I was told that by a member of staff who had a smirk on his face that I had liquids in my bag which I did not. When I went to open my bag I was told not touch it. The member of staff then opened my bag but did not actually look inside. They then said I could go. Like you I was left feeling humiliated [/QUOTE]
