Traveling overseas security checks

[Troyziee]

OK so this is going to be a very specific thread, though at the end of the year i am traveling to the USA, and i know their border security would probably be amongst the strictest in the world.

But i am wondering if anyone has traveled there, or know's anyone that has gone there, that have any forms of metal in their body ie: rods, pins, plates etc....

Im wondering if theres some form of card or documentation you can get to show as your passing through the x-ray machines n all that, to try and avoid any shit

shouldnt be a problem mate - i have plenty in me - just warn them before u walk through - and locations in your body.. you could get a docs certificate but seriously not worth the cost.

ye, only saying it because its the US, didnt think a medical certificate would cost?? couldnt imagine it being a problem, just making sure, seeing if anyone has been through their screening procceses

Been into the US 3 times since having my legs reset after breaking them, both have plates and screws.

No issue at all. It is visible on xray.

My mum has had a hip replacement and now carries a medical card which she produced anytime she is put through a metal detector

Was in the USA in February, no problems.

I have metal pins in 1 finger.

Just told the guy before I walked thorough.

Only had to go though the X Ray process once.

Previous trip to the USA 6 weeks after 9/11 was different matter though.
