I have an upcoming mammogram appointment and I’m wondering if anyone has had one without removing their Medtronic transmitter. I have previously removed my pump and transmitter, before going into the test room, but I wonder if it would be ok to keep the transmitter on this time.
 
A mammogram is an x-ray.
Whilst I have not used Medtronic, I have used various CGMs and taken them through airport security with no trouble.
Like you, I remove my pump for my mammogram but never removed Libre when I was using them.
 
I use Dexcom and Omnipod. Had mammogram yesterday and no need to remove any. Both were below waist though. Abdomen and thigh for Omnipod.
