Hi All!!

jackie i am shocked that they gave you problems at security i would have thought off all places they would know what to do!! i was advised by my rep even people with hip replacements cannot go through these machines so what do they do to those people!!

Well all has turned out fine for me except i have yet to pack !

The rep contacted the airline for me as this morning as it was looking like my unit and me were not going to be allowed near the plane!!

Anyway this afternoon they confirmed i could fly and have my devise turned on and all airlines i am flying with have being notified so i will not have to go through this on my return! I am allowed to have my devise on but i am not allowed to charge up on the plane so will have to find a way to do this or shut myself down for an hour or two. If my machine is switched off it takes a few hours for the therapy to wear off so i should be fine.

please do not worry Mark, we had know idea what a can of worms we were opening!! but we live and learn and as my rep says less is more with these guys!

and now i have one last question after reading jackieys post the remote control can be scanned but can the power unit that charges us up be scanned? if you dont know the answer i will email the rep in the morning.

When i come back from the usa i will be another year older although i think the last few days have added a few grey hairs!! i will send you guys a post from the usa to let you all know i managed to survive this trip and i promise all will run smoothly from here on out!!
