IF you have Mayo you are in great hands. Which Mayo are you at? I am at Mayo Jacksonville and on my 3rd ICD/Pacemaker.
Your pace clinic is going to be checking wires, and looking at your recordings to find any discrepancies and adjust them. They will be running test on your device. They may speed up your device to make sure it is working properly, etc.
They may do some fine tuning of programs.
You are still in recovery from surgery. They will be looking at your surgery site and any signs of infections, etc. Be sure to asked them about arm movements and restrictions they are recommending.
If you have an exercise mode on your device asked them about that. I had my turned off due to issues it was causing. You may want to discuss with the rate of pacing you are getting and if that is okay for your lifestyle.
Did they set you up with the home monitor? That is how I do my inbetween pacemake tests in person as I have a remote device at home where they send my recordings to Mayo. If I have any episodes I can do a manual remote to Mayo and they can look at it for causes.
If you have not been set up with a home remote asked about it.
