What should I ask at Pacemaker check appointment

I have had my St Jude dual lead pacer since the middle of Feb 2015 for SSS. I am trying to learn everything I can re the Pacemaker. What questions should I ask at my next Pacemaker check. Do I need any reports? The only information I'very received so far is how often it is pacing (ie 43%).

I am only two days post Op so learning lots by reading everyone's comments, I will be like you wanting to know the ins and outs of everything, so your 43% what does that relate to, do you also receive a read out of why it was used and what times it was used, just wondering if I need to keep any notes

You know you're wired when...

You play MP3 files on your pacer.
