[Diabetes-talk] Issues at Orlando Airport July 10th with me, insulin pump and guide dog

[cheryl echevarria]

Well Veronica I did call it, I searched for the airport that it happened at, and left a message for the manager of the TSA office at the Orlando Airport. I can help with this in the future.

I will be putting this information on the Travel and Tourism Division website once we have someone to work with to get it up and running, I will be posting information on the travel and tourism website, which I have been doing since coming home from convention, but we at the TandT Division need more than myself to be involved with issues and traveling.

We need members as well. I hope to put links as well to NAGDU and DAN and other travel tips being diabetics. So come and enjoy the fun.

  Oh man, no way! Never! On the insulin pumpers list, someone posted a 
  link to the official diabetes-related parts of the TSA regulations 
  and I'm trying to chase that down now. I'm 100 per cent with you 
  here, Cheryl. I had one airport trip where it was easily 45 minutes 
  from the time I put my stuff in the bin till I was headed for my 
  gate. No way would I go that long without my pump, jeopardizing my 
  health for an incorrect security policy.
  And I think I remember somewhere that there's an 800 number that we 
  can call when we're in the midst of a situation like that to get 
  instant real time help. I'll see if I can find that as well.
