Airport security

I am going abroad in may and wear a breast prosethis, I am worried about going in the scanner at airport in case it shows up. Should I get a letter from my doctor. Anyone had any experiences

  • I don't think there's any harm in asking your doctor for a letter to take with you Linda but hopefully this advice I've found on the Breast Cancer Now website will help you with your decision.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in this situation will share their experiences and advice with you soon but you're welcome to have a quick chat with our cancer nurses about this next week on 0808 800 4040. The phone lines will be open between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    I hope everything goes o.k at the airport when the time comes Linda.

    Kind regards,
