Disability Travel - Insulin Pump Wearer - needs advice for security check point

I'm hoping there's someone out there who can give me some advice on how to get through the security checkpoint with all my pump supplies. Besides the usual supplies (insulin, tubing, meter, test strips, etc) I will be carrying a back up insulin pump, and batteries. While I'm sure that I will be lucky enough to make it through the WTMD without setting off the alarm (done this many times before) and no one will be any wiser that I'm wearing my pump, I am wondering if carrying a back up pump could raise a red flag and make me subject to the pat down.

Anyone have any words of wisdom?

It shouldn't be a problem. I travel with a CPAP and everything you mentioned except an insulin pump. I have also travelled with two CPAPs and all the supplies mentioned above. Does your backup insulin pump have a travel bag? If not, bring it ion the original box. Also have a prescription from your doctor for all your supplies, including the insulin pump. I have never been asked for it, but it's a good idea.

I travel 3x/week and my pump alarms about 1 in 20 through the WTMD and on NoS, I just hold it over my head. TSO then swabs my hands, runs the swab through explosives detector (so swab never even touches pump) and we are done. Only thing different for you is that the spare pump should not go through x-ray. Just show it at WTMD/NoS and TSO will ask you to rub your hand over the extra pump too and swab your hand after that. As to supplies, only thing I can think of that implicates TSA rules is insulin becs. it's liquid. While technically, there is no limit on drugs, the reality is that given that you can put your insulin into your 1-quart / 3 oz baggie, that isn't a problem either.

You don't say whether you are traveling overseas. If so, you should check carefully with the other nation(s) for their rules and you should have clearly readable prescriptions and an MD letter written in plain English simply stating that the pump, specified supplies, etc are medically necessary.
