I just went through the regular scanner at O'Hare and Dallas Fort Worth, with no problems at all. they were more worried about the half bottle of water I had.lol

That is great to know, one of my fears after sugery was having a full body scan and having something go off..

I've been through several times since surgery with no issues.

I've been through the who body scanners, nothing to report. I did bring a container of electrolyte powder. it was in a 16 oz jug, that threw them for a loop. Turns out powder reads like liquid on the x-ray. On my way home, i took it out of my carry on, all was well.

(I always bring an empty Water bottle through, I fill it up in a drinking fountain once through security. Much cheaper than paying $4.00 for a pint of water.
