Questions for Dr.

Hi Everyone,
I have my first Dr. appt with the electrophysiologist since she put in my pacemaker for bradycardia. She is with Brigam and Women's Hospital and not a Doctorr on my Heath Plan (I was originally diagnosed for Afrib heartbeat speed up after a routine checkup and had one appt. with my Health Plan Cardiologist before the bradycardia started)
The pacemaker seems fine and no problems with bradycardia.
However even though I can't seem to feel any heart speedup, I do noticed chest pain at least twice a day for atleast 10-30 minutes.I am currently on atenolol-75 and 325 of asprin daily.

What questions would you advice me to ask at this point?

I have an appointment with my regular cardiologist who I only saw once after the Afib was detected.I will see her the week after.

Also anyone on the Harvard Pilgrim Health Plan in the greater Boston area know of a good electrophysiologist who is on the plan? Thank you Jim
