Tingling In Arms And Hands, Pain In Chest, Shortness Of Breath After Placing 2 Stents In Left Main Artery Due To 99% Blockage. Help

55 year old female, had 2 stents placed, through groin, in left main artery due to 99% blockage on Tuesday. since then I have been having tingling in my arms and hands and some occasional pain in the center of my chest. I go to the cardiologist on the 7th but am wondering should I see them sooner. I have also been experiencing shortness of breath that I did not have before.
