I have type 1 diabetes and have a CGM and insulin pump on me at all times. The manufacturers say you shouldn't take them through the scanners, but me and every diabetic I know has never experienced any issues with the devices, so most of us just go through the scanner and then have to be patted down anyway because it picks up the device.
I dread it every time, because when I've tried to inform TSA agents ahead of time about my medical devices (which all the signs tell you to do!) they either ignore me or just tell me to go through. And then when I don't mention it, I frequently get berated on the other side, while they do the swab test for explosives.
