Racer, I have nothing to offer except sympathy and admiration. I was in a relationship once where my boyfriend didn't want sex as often as I did, and I still felt incredibly rejected. I have to admire how well you are dealing with it without exploding at your husband or ceasing to love him. Touch and affection is something we all need, and you deserve it.
I also thought Seldom's post was incredibly thoughtful. I find that I'm incredibly sensitive to others' comments about my relationships--suddenly, when someone else comments, it becomes a *bigger* problem than it was if I was dealing with it alone. I don't know why that is, or if it's the same with you.
Regardless, this sounds really tough and I hope the time before your appointment moves quickly. Can you take your new car out and drive really fast with the music up really loud? That helps me :)
