I’m thankful and at least confident that I won’t have issues.
Thankful for this board and the guys supporting each other.

I don’t want to have to tell anyone I’m implanted unless I want to. I travel a ton for work, often with colleagues so this worried me. The day after my surgery I opted to drive 18 hours as opposed to flying. Much of that was due to sticking straight out and not being able to hide it at all.
Well, I’m three weeks post-op tomorrow and am sitting on a plane right now. The TSA was a non-event.

Can you have It in your pocket? I guess It wont activate any kind of scanner (the card)

The check in agent at TSA is the one who told me hold it in my hands. Even in a pocket it could show up. Left cash in my pocket once and got flagged.
