Requesting Airlines rep when going through security?
I am wondering whether it is possible to request an airline rep to help me go through security for the following reasons:

1. Helping with carry-ons to ensure easier passage through checkpoints (especially while carrying laptops and other stuff that needs taking out for security inspections)
2. Help to look over/secure belongings when I am indisposed for security purposes
3. I am currently having problems with my back, but does not carry any doctor's note or medical letters (i.e. Proof).

Are requests like this allowable under TSA regulations? Will an airline allow such a request? Is there anything else I need to know about to help me obtain help?

Thank you in advance!
