As a Type 1 diabetic with a couple million miles travel in the last 15 years I have never had a problem traveling with insulin along with both a personal item and carryon.
My interpretation has always been analogous to a pair of crutches. Except crutches don’t disintegrate above or below a narrow temperature range and cost $700 to replace.
one recommendation is understand the temperature range of your ice packs as most are well below freezing, Arctic Ice Alaskan Series keeps the temperature at 33.6F in your cooler.
Regarding TSA you’ll want to make sure the freezer pack is frozen I.e not a liquid or gel, should it be melted it will be at the TSA’s discretion
