I know someone with a similar condition. (all the glands were removed due to a
cancer) and she has to sip water very frequently. If they cant carry the water,
I think its ridiculous. I think you should have a doctors note saying you need
this. It wont be good for TSA if they were caught refusing water to someone
with a similar condition. I just hope you dont have to travel with these
ridiculous restrictions.
And carry a couple of water bottles with you along with the note. Chances
are no one will bother you, but it they do.. you have the note.
