Medications
I read with interest about carrying medications on board in a pouch. A thread hijack maybe but:
How do you get them aboard even with prescriptions?
In 2007 my son was released from three days in hospital and not allowed in cabin any prescribed liquids and post release meds. After arriving in Darwin his temperature was abnormal but no access allowed. In Alice Springs with a nine hour delay due to storms in Darwin, equipment could not depart, as Darwin airport closed, a three hour connection became nine hours, only after he collapsed and was bright red with a burning temperature was I allowed access to baggage to get his meds!
I need a liquid nitro lingual spray since 2012 and have scripts and carry heart scans, stent size and location but it has never been allowed in cabin and I now never try to get it in, based on previous attempts. Cannot afford ($) to keep having $ confiscated. I had three international (7.5hr) sectors in two days last week plus domestic sectors in foreign countries.
How do people get meds on board?
