It depends...

It depends on how dependent you are. If you're highly dependant then your symptoms would be fainting, or a mild case of death. If your dependency is less, your symptoms would be less in proportion.

Speak to your doctor.

I don't know about symptoms but when I had a bad lead they found out when my device was interrogated.

check your pulse

Ask them or even better get a printout, so far I ask for and get a printout every time I go, I understand some docs/techs are not as willing to do that.  But if nothing else know what your lower limit setting is.  Take your pulse FOR A FULL MINUTE and see how it compares to that number, that got me through any/all periods of anxiety.  

I was born with heart block back before pacers were common, so 19 years without one and could take my pulse by simply looking at a clock, the rushing sound was in my ear constantly it was normal.  first pacer left a huge hole, that sound and feeling in my chest went away, but taking my pulse and knowing what my limit was confirmed I did not have a mild case of death, and the thing was working...

Plus counting for 60 seconds very likely is mentally calming as well...
