I have an example of this as well. I carry Imitrex shots in my purse every time I fly...actually everywhere I go. It's like my form of an epi pen! I have been through security at dozens of airports without a problem before and after an incident at BWI where I was patted down because of these shots. My bag was checked for explosives. I was told that the other TSA agents weren't doing their jobs correctly if this didn't happen every time. Whatever. The agent told me to make things go quicker the next time, I should take the shots out of my bag so that the bag wouldn't be searched, but I would just be patted down. I'll can tell you that I have not followed that advice, and I've never been patted down again. If it happens again, whoop dee do. If they want to make sure I'm not smuggling something incendiary in my shots, that's their prerogative.
