I must say that I'm glad that I flew to Dallas a few weeks ago and not after the bomb scare. :/ I have many medications which are labeled to me, under the name everyone knows me by, and not by my old asian name that only my parents call me. :/ It would mean getting new prescriptions filled out, mail ordered, etc etc... and since I have 8 separate prescriptions, from three different doctors, it would definately be a pain.
Keeping the meds in their original bottles is also a pain. I'm having to now mail order my medications, so each bottle holds typically 3 months of medication. If I lost my meds, I believe the insurance that I have would require that I pay for the replacement out of pocket. We're talking about $6k. :/ And since I need those meds to live, the alternative isn't very good.
*sigh*
I think I'm going to avoid flying for a while again.
