You don't mention what country you live in. In some countries there are no or few places to do these sophisticated tests. In countries with socialized medicine patients routinely wait extremely long periods of time for procedures and testing.  In the USA scheduling is often based on emergency and urgency. Patients with accidents, active strokes, actively bleeding aneurysms are moved to the head of the line. Others with less urgent problems queue up.  If your physicians felt the risks of waiting a week were not acceptable they would declare you an emergency and you would move to the head of the line.

I'm glad that your problems are being diagnosed and hope that treatment will be available.
