I believe it was due to extensive metal hardware in my right femur (reconstructive surgery). However, they did stop using the machine right after me so it could have been a malfunction. No matter which, I was humiliated. I know that I could have opted for a patdown but after watch a disgusting and invasive search of a young pregnant woman, I refused. I am a skin cancer patient so no telling what that extensive exposure could do to any precancerous skin cells. To top it off, I began to panic due to the lengthy time and my heart arrythmia worsened.
