F/U frequency: Would of course suggest visits with your cardiologist, internist, and any other ongoing practitioner. Depending on stability could have twice yearly visits, and yearly testing. But if you have been stable for several years, maybe once yearly for each. If symptomatic, all bets off, and frequent visits mandated. Your doctors know you best, get their advice.
