@infrequentflyer789.... Do you consider your personal medical needs and the baggage you need to cart them around override the safe and timely evacuation of the other 200+ passengers? A passenger that has special needs is always seated such that they will not impede the majority of other passengers in the event of an evacuation. They will be attended to by the crew when the aircraft is clear.

It sounds very much that flying is an activity that presents you with several medical challenges: From your description.... Being removed from prompt access to a medical facility being the primary one. The need for such large quantities of meds also being rather significant. Do you appraise the airline of these risks before you fly? Or you just say nothing, turn up (because it's my right), and share the risk of a medical diversion or an impeded evacuation without a second thought to your fellow humans?
