Driving a modern engine with a misfire will shorten the life of the cat.
Driving with a misfire is really hard on your cats. Catalysts are under a fairly long emissions warranty however a cat that might last 150k might only see 80 to 100k on the bank with the misfire. Have them put you in a loaner like it or not. I know the Service Advisors hate to do it but trust me driving with a miss is bad news. When the Check Engine light blinks its saying
"Stop your hurting me". I would even push to have a cat warrantied on the bank with the misfire if I could.
