My wife recently dealt successfully with breast cancer and heart failure. Chemo and surgery beat the cancer. She's had a pacemaker-defibrillator installed for the heart failure. She now feels great.
Surgery removed some lymph glands and she has to deal with lymphedema in her right arm. She has a device that lives by her bedside, monitors her heart and sends info to her cardiologist.
We plan a thru next year. Her docs say she can do it. Cardiologist says she can use the heart monitor over the net.
I'm looking for thru-hikers who have dealt with either or both of these issues on their thrus who can tell us what it was like, what worked, what didn't, tips, hints, advice, etc.
Thanks.
