Could anyone give me advice on how to seek proper care for my situation?

You're set up to do what you need to do in having the neurologist appointment. My experience has been that the GP may do some initial testing to rule out the obvious, but will then yield completely to the neuro. As Ken said, waiting until the end of July isn't bad. I waited six months to get in.
My heart does a lot of weird things. If I roll on my right side, I often get in an irregular rhythm. I try to stay off my right side. In February of 2014, I wore a holter monitor for 24 hours because I was having palpitations. The monitor picked up 1300 irregular beats in 24 hours, and several other odd things, but nothing dangerous. The cause was hormonal, and now I'm just back to normal oddness.
I tell you all this because I've learned my heart is just weird, and I have lots of oddities. It hasn't killed me yet.
If it scares you and you'd like reassurance, you could get a cardiac work-up.
