Blood Pressure High, Lupus, Sjogren's, Shortness Of Breath

I got my blood pressure checked at a fair at work today. My blood pressure was 115/84. My resting heart rate was 102. The RN there suggested I call my doc because of the resting heart rate being high. I am a 27 year old female with Lupus , Sjogrens. I ve been getting shortness of breath lately, out of breath walking to the parking lot right outside my office. Should I be worried?
