Boston Scientific latitude monitor

I had a pacemaker fitted 4 weeks ago and was provided with one of these which is plugged into my bedroom as suggested. I am going away on 4th May and wondered if you are supposed to take this monitor with you. If so, do I put it in my hand luggage to my suitcase.

Hopefully someone can tell me.

Thanks

Thanks very much - I did wonder as know we're being monitored at home but not sure what would be done in you're in another country!

As all these devices are different, you should probably contact the cardio dept that fitted it. Mine is only read every 6 months, so I just call them if I am going to be away on the planned date.
