Russia Airport Security

[dvhales]

I am fulfilling a lifelong ambition and visiting Moscow next weekend. I am looking for a card for me to show at Airport Security to explain the pump and the reason why it can't go through the scanner. Does anyone know where I could find such a thing? e.g. a download?
Even if I knew Russian, my laptop doesn't have the appropriate keyboard (but I don't anyway!) ;>)
Thanks

Nothing like leaving things a bit late is there? 🙄
Have you considered ringing your pump company and asking their advice?

We have had a information sheet from Medtronic in various languages when we have been abroad, but we have never needed to produce it - explaining was enough and showing the pump, they had seen a few before us. However, perhaps Russia is not as mainstream as Europe - worth getting something to take with you. Try your pump website or give them a bell 🙂

My DSN at the hospital provides this type of information to show at airports. See if yours does too. 🙂
